Sylvain Francisco has received his first major accolade as he was named to the All-Euroleague First Team. This recognition comes just before he is set to compete in his inaugural playoff series and as the Euroleague MVP race results are still pending. Francisco will share this prestigious honor with Elijah Bryant, Sasha Vezenkov, Nikola Milutinov, and the competition’s ‘Rising Star,’ Jean Montero.
This marks a significant milestone for the French international player. Francisco was instrumental in guiding Zalgiris Kaunas to secure a spot in the top 6 of the standings. Throughout the season, he has established himself as the eighth-highest scorer in the Euroleague, averaging 16.7 points per game, and the third-best assist provider, with 6.4 assists per game. This distinction solidifies ‘Cisco’s’ ascent into a new echelon of basketball performance.
