French center Jonathan Jeanne, who was expected to be a first-round selection in the 2017 NBA draft, has been diagnosed with Marfan syndrome, a potentially career-ending disorder, agent Bouna Ndiaye told The Vertical.

In an interview with HoopsHype, Seraphin said joining Spanish powerhouse FC Barcelona was his priority for several weeks in the offseason. “Barcelona was my first option,” the French center told HoopsHype. “I talked to the GM. He called me. After that, I talked to the coach and they were my first option. But they made us wait. They were like, ‘We have to make room’. Then they told us they could not do it because they couldn’t make room. That’s when my new agent (Bouna Ndiaye) started calling teams in the NBA and seeing if we could get a deal. That’s why it took so long, because we were exploring that option first. I was looking forward to an opportunity to play a lot and show people what I can do. Since it didn’t happen with Barcelona, we looked at opportunities in the NBA… And then Barcelona came back! But it was too late then because we were in the process of talking to NBA teams, then I tried out with Indiana for a couple of days and now I’m with the Pacers.”
French agent Bouna Ndiaye, who helped Nicolas Batum sign a $120 million contract and Evan Fournier a $85 million contract, is in Salt Lake City to begin negotiations with the Utah Jazz hoping to do better with Rudy Gobert.
As reported by French newspaper L’Equipe, Rudy Gobert’s agent, Bouna NDiaye, is in Salt Lake City to begin contract extension talks with the Utah Jazz. Gobert is eligible for a contract extension this summer and may see a huge raise in his salay. A max deal for Gobert would be around $143 million.
The Knicks will only say they hope to see Labeyrie play for their summer-league team in Las Vegas in July. His agent, Bouna Ndiaye, told The Post Monday night “It’s 100 percent definite he will.’’
Mozgov had been represented by Bouna Ndiaye, Nicolas Batum’s agent. The two parted ways in January and he has since signed with Justin Zanik of ASM Sports.
