The 18-year-old also had a strong showing with the NBA Academy Africa in December at the G League Winter Showcase in front of executives and scouts in Orlando, Florida. He established himself as perhaps the top player in the competition.

Chomche is considered a potential first-round pick this year. He has good size and mobility at 240 pounds (109 kg), enabling him to work in the post and protect the paint with his 7-feet, 4-inch (2.23cm) wingspan. He can also step out and shoot a bit, which should only improve with more reps.

He is viewed as a bit of a raw player and will likely need additional development before he can contribute nightly at the next level. He could elect to test the pre-draft process to gain feedback on his game and then play a year in college to further develop his skill set.

Chomche will have the opportunity to improve his draft positioning in team interviews and workouts over the pre-draft process. He could also be invited to compete in the G League Elite Camp or draft combine next month in Chicago, Illinois.

The 2024 NBA draft will take place June 26-27 in New York City.
