Sarr Will Give His Best to Any Team in the 2024 NBA Draft

Sarr discussed his strategy if he is selected in the 2024 NBA Draft. He said he would play for any team that selects him. According to him, a player should give 100 percent when picked by a team and should not be picky. He stated that he doesn’t have a preference for the draft and would give his best for the team that selects him.


“I’ll play for any team that drafts me. For me, the most important thing is if a team is willing to take a chance on you; you just have to go there and play hard. There’s no such thing as being picky or not wanting to go somewhere.” Sarr said during the interview.

During an interview with Bleacher Report, Sarr named the potential contender who could rival San Antonio Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama. He mentioned that the Heat star is the only one deemed better than Wembanyama.
