Nicolas Batum loves to share the ball. Less animated than his fellow Team Africa members, he prefers to let his work do the talking. Batum especially loves throwing alley-oops, which is great considering he’s got Aminu and Antetokounmpo as targets.
Best Play: His second career triple-double, in 2014, showed Batum’s stamina and eagerness to hustle on both offense and defense.
