[Itamar on Twitter] Coulibaly ended up with 16 points, 4 assists and 2 steals. Shot 7-12 FG and 1-2 3PT in the French league playoffs. He should be in contention for the #10 pick. He’s also an excellent defender and fits what we need perfectly.
Theading Bilal Coulibaly's game, live rn, in the semi-finals against Asvel:
What a a drive! Catches his defender lacking, drives left off the catch, and finishes with his off-hand, and 1.
That athleticism is special. Look how much lift he got off his weak foot pic.twitter.com/zwrm7rlg3G

Coulibaly is 6’7” with a 7’+ wingspan. He’s still 18 years old and only started playing with the first team in the middle of the season. Since then he’s burst onto the scene and put together some very impressive performances showing an all around game with excellent defense. I think he should be in contention for the Mavs 10th pick and fits the team perfectly especially on defense.
For context, #1 pick Wembanyama finished this game with 15/7/2.
