The second edition of an event that has already produced NBA players

This is the second edition of the Ledger Young Star Game. The inaugural event in 2025 saw Noah Penda make a mark by earning the MVP (Most Valuable Player) title, before being drafted into the NBA where he now plays for the Orlando Magic. Such a journey is a true inspiration for all the players selected for this year's second edition.

In the inaugural edition, two other players chosen for the event had been drafted into the NBA: Nolan Traoré (selected 19th) and Mohamed Diawara (51st pick).

An event to make a name—or even a first name—for yourself

Among the 20 players selected, each will be eager to make a name for themselves, even though some are already well known in the Betclic ÉLITE league, such as Aaron Towo-Nansi, Adam Atamna, and Hugo Yimga-Moukouri.

Some, already widely known by name, will try to carve out their own paths and follow in the footsteps of their older siblings. One example is Oscar Wembanyama, the brother of the celebrated Wemby, who stars for the San Antonio Spurs and the French National Team. Others include Swann Penda, whose brother Noah is playing in the NBA.
