text:  Here's Eddie Garcia. In the first round of the NBA draft, with the first overall selection, the Atlanta Hawks selected Zachary Rissachet out of France. Second straight year that a player from France was taken No. 1 overall. Last year, Victor Wambayama for San Antonio. And the No. 2 pick by the Washington Wizards, also a player from France. That would be Alex Saar. Three French players were taken in the top ten. Four French players were selected in the first round. Some American college players of note that were selected.
