ESPN analyst names Joan Beringer as favorite European draft prospect
Joan Beringer is projected to be a potential first-round pick in the 2025 NBA draft, and the Frenchman recently earned praise from ESPN analyst Fran Fraschilla. Beringer is averaging 4.9 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.4 blocks on 61% shooting from the field in 51 games with Cedevita Olimpija in Slovenia. He has scored in double figures six times, including a season-high 12 points and five rebounds on March 4. Advertisement The 6-foot-11 forward boasts a reported 7-foot, 4-inch wingspan and is highly touted for his versatility, athleticism and rim protection. He is considered raw offensively, but has the tools to develop into a productive player at the next level, which has stood out to Fraschilla. Beringer has also represented France internationally at the 2024 FIBA U18 EuroBasket. He averaged 9.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.1 blocks and one assist on 70.5% shooting from the field in seven games, helping France to a fifth-place finish in Finland. The 18-year-old is among a talented group of international prospects, joining the likes of Noa Essengue, Kasparas Jakučionis, Khaman Maluach, Ben Saraf and Nolan Traoré, among others. They are all considered first-round picks, with some expected to go in the lottery. Advertisement Beringer will be a late arrival to the United States for the predraft process, with Cedevita Olimpija on track to qualify for the ABA League playoffs next month. He will likely have the opportunity to participate in a draft combine in June for prospects still playing with their international teams. The 2025 NBA draft will occur June 25-26 in New York City.
