Nicolas Batum

Nicolas Batum is the kind of player I deeply appreciate even if casual fans overlook him. Standing 203 cm, the Frenchman has carved out a long NBA career with the Clippers and others built on versatility rather than gaudy scoring, defending, passing and connecting the pieces. Two Olympic silver medals with France, in Tokyo and Paris, plus a 2021 knighthood in the National Order of Merit, speak to a career of service to his country. I value selfless, complete players who stay relevant for over a decade, and Batum is a quintessential example of that connoisseur's pick.
