Invited to the famous “Green Room”, Rayan Rupert should probably be chosen in the first round of the 2023 draft.

The 2023 draft (June 23) is destined to be French! After Victor Wembanyama and Bilal Coulibaly, it was Rayan Rupert who had the privilege of being invited to the “Green Room”. This is the VIP room reserved for very promising players. NBA franchises determine the 25 talents who deserve a place in this space and only 20 are chosen to settle in this privileged place.

His presence in the “Green Room” ultimately means that he will be selected in the first round of the 2023 draft. By which franchise? For the moment, we have no idea, unlike Victor Wembanyama and Bilal Coulibaly, both tipped to wear the San Antonio Spurs jersey. Unexpected in this room, Rayan Rupert is grilling the steps. Maybe he will do it in the NBA?

Rayan Rupert was born on May 31, 2004 in Strasbourg into a family of athletes. His father was a former basketball player, who passed away in 2013. His mother’s name is Elham. Rayan has an older sister who also plays orange ball professionally. She represented the club of Virtus Bologna and counts with the Blue 48 selections. Rayan obtained his first degree in 2008 at Elan Chalon. After his first steps on the court, he wore the colors of JS Coulaines and SCM Le Mans before joining the federal center in 2018. Finally in 2022, the back decided to join New Zealand at New Zealand Breakers with whom he became vice-champion of Australia. In this Championship, he was able to flourish and apply for the 2023 draft.

Thierry Rupert was a strong winger and played almost 20 years in the French Championships: Poissy-Chatou, Antibes, Limoges, Paris, Strasbourg, Pau-Orthez, Chalon-sur-SaƓne, Le Mans, Rouen and Dijon. He also wore the colors of the France team 35 times. Unfortunately, he is no longer of this world. He suffered a cardiac arrest in 2013.

Illiana Rupert is a professional baksetball player who has already gained experience at the age of 21. She was a bronze medalist at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. She also received silver with Les Bleues during Euro basket 2019 and 2021. She should have her chance in the WNBA next season with the Aces de Las Vegas. This season she evolved with the Virtus of Bologna. She was previously with the Tango de Bourges.

The crack Rayan Rupert has origins in the overseas territories and more precisely on the American continent in Martinique.

Rayan Rupert is almost 2m tall. He only needs a small centimeter to reach this symbolic bar of 2 meters (1.99m).

At 19, the young French basketball player has an equivalent wingspan estimated at 2m21, which corresponds to the height of Victor Wembanyama.
