Who is the youngest player to have graced an NBA court? In Europe, basketball legends started playing professionally around the age of 15! We think of Ricky Rubio, who was only 14 years old on the Badalona side or of Luka Doncic, aged 16 when he played with the great Real Madrid. Sixteen years old is also the age of Antoine Rigaudeau when he started with Cholet.
But in the NBA, the figure is a little higher. The record is for Andrew Bynum. But some legends are not far away. And we're talking about it today in Histoire(s) de basketball.
