Wussten Sie schon?
Batum is one of the only players in NBA history to have contributed meaningfully to a team across a 17-year career spanning multiple distinct roles — from scoring wing to Swiss Army knife to defensive specialist — without ever being the franchise star.
He was part of Team France's landmark gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, defeating Team USA in a historic home-crowd performance — considered one of the greatest moments in French basketball history.
Batum was nicknamed 'Nico' in the Portland locker room, where he was considered one of the most naturally intelligent players on a roster that also included LaMarcus Aldridge and Damian Lillard.
He has played in France, the NBA, and for the French national team across five Olympic cycles — an extraordinary international career for a wing who was considered a role player through much of his prime.
