Nicola Alberani, the sporting director of French club SIG Strasbourg, is another fan. “It’s another game when he’s on the court,” he says. “You think you can shoot, that he’s not that close, but then in reality he is so long, you don’t realise how close he is. And when he passes the ball, you can’t contest any pass. He is like an added point guard. When he shoots, he’s always wide open, because nobody can get there. “I become a basketball fan when I watch him play. He’s a unique package of everything. As long as he can stay healthy, to me, it’s illegal. I really think he can be one of the best players that ever played the game.”
