Alex Sarr adjusted the sights for his first preseason outing

After his particularly complicated Summer League, marked by a huge awkwardness including this 0/15 shooting match which caused a lot of talk, Alex Sarr was back with the Wizards jersey. In preseason.

And if his team quickly took on water against the Raptors (125-98), the Frenchman reassured him. Positioned in position 4 alongside Jonas Valanciunas, he showed why he was chosen in second position in the Draft, with an ability both to go towards the circle on the pick-and-roll, and to spread the play on other sequences.

He thus finished the match with a nice stats line: 15 points at 6/8 shooting including 3/4 from distance, 3 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 block, but 3 turnovers.

The Frenchman notably slammed a big dunk on Chris Boucher while his compatriot Bilal Coulibaly For his part, he finished the match with 10 points at 4/6 shooting, plus 2 rebounds, 2 interceptions and 2 blocks.

Despite everything, the season risks being long for the French, while the Wizards suffered from the opposing defensive intensity throughout the meeting, like an overwhelmed and frustrated Bub Carrington.
