BREAKING: Olivier-Maxence Prosper hears his name called as No. 24 pick in 2023 NBA Draft

In the weeks leading up to the 2023 NBA Draft, there was a lot of speculation as to when Olivier-Maxence Prosper would hear his name called and what team’s hat he’d proudly don for his picture with NBA Commissioner Adam Silver.

But the 6-foot-8 forward did not have to wait long to find out he would be a Maverick after Dallas selected him as the No. 24 pick in the draft Thursday night at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

The Sacramento Kings sent the No. 24 overall pick to Dallas in a trade that included Richaun Holmes.
