Yannick Nzosa is a 19-year-old centre for the Coosur Real Betis. He was born and bought up in Congo. Later he went to Spain to enhance his skills. The Washington Wizards signed him during the 2022 NBA draft. This article will explore his contract details, net worth, personal life and career.

Yannick Nzosa Career

Nzosa started his basketball journey with the Italian club, Stella Azzurra Roma, in 2017. He learned to speak Italian with the help of Paul Eboua and Jordan Bayehe, his teammates. He was named to the all-tournament team at the Kaunas Tournament in 2019, where he played for Stella Azzurra’s under-18 team.

In the 2019-20 season, Nzosa was loaned to Roseto Sharks of Serie A2 Basket. He was then picked up by his mentor, Joe Lolonga, without the permission of his club and was taken to Málaga to join the Spanish club, Unicaja Málaga. Stella Azzurra filed a police report against Lolonga for kidnapping. However, Nzosa announced his move to Unicaja and denied reports of him being kidnapped.

In March 2020, Nzosa signed a five-year contract with Unicaja in the Liga ACB, which allowed him to leave for the NBA and EuroLeague with a €1 million clause. He quickly established himself as a key player for Unicaja in the 2020-21 season and made history as one of the youngest players in the league to score 10 or more points in a game.

However, he was sidelined for five months due to athletic pubalgia, which caused his play to decline in the 2021-22 season and led to him being selected as a late second-round pick in the 2022 NBA draft by the Washington Wizards. He was loaned to Real Betis Baloncesto for the 2022-23 season.
