Ali Traoré - EuroBasket 2009 Profile

Team 2008-09: ASVEL (France-Pro A)
Career: ASVEL (France-Pro A, 2000-04), Southern Idaho JC (USA-JUCO, 2004), Quimper (France-Pro B, 2005), Chorale Roanne (France-Pro A, 2005-06), Le Havre (France-Pro A, 2006-08), ASVEL (France-Pro A, 2008-09)

Not very motivated for the defensive part of the game, Ali has to improve in that aspect of the game. Collet knows that but selected Traoré for his ability to score inside with regularity. 100% ambidextrous, Ali can kill defences on great left handed hooks or little jumpers from 4 meters taken with his right hand. When he is on a roll Traoré is capable of bringing offensive bursts to the floor, as his 12 points in around 15 minutes on the court proved it against Finland and Italy. But will he be able to have the same efficiency with the "big boys" that will be present at this EuroBasket?
