Hifi was the second-leading scorer in the EuroLeague regular season with 18.9 points per game

Paris Basketball star Nadir Hifi has a clear vision for his future: he wants to test himself in the NBA.

“It’s no secret, I feel ready. I hope to get a chance as soon as this summer. I can no longer declare for the Draft, but I’m hoping for a free agent contract. It’s not entirely up to me — all I can do is keep proving my value on the court. I know I have strong interest in Europe as well, but I’m still under contract with Paris. In any case, right now my only option is the NBA.”

The guard finished the EuroLeague season averaging 18.9 points (41% FG, 35% 3PT, 84% FT) and 3.8 assists, while in the French league he is posting 19.8 points and 3.8 assists per game.
