Who is Evan Fournier?

Chacun trouve son propre chemin dans sa passionpar plusieurs moyens. Cela peut être dû à un hasard ou à quelque chose qui vous a été imposé. Pour Fournier, né le 29 octobre 1992 dans une banlieue parisienne, sa passion était le résultat de regarder la pièce 2001-02 de Sacramento Kings. C’était un amour qui a débuté lors d’un match contre les Lakers de Los Angeles lors de la phase finale de la conférence, mais c’est un amour qui a suivi Fournier jusqu’à l’âge adulte, à tel point qu’il porte le maillot numéro 10 en l’honneur de Mike Bibby, un Sacramento. Roi à l’époque.

Humble beginnings make for great stories, they help the world aspire to greatness. Fournier’s professional beginnings were modest. As a young boy, he started attending the French academy INSEP and dreamed of being part of the French second division team, JSF Nanterre; Evan rose to the top of French professional basketball after signing a two-year contract with Poitiers Basket 86, before ending it with a draft pick from the NBA in 2012. Indeed, his boyhood journey fell in love with basketball in the suburbs of Paris at the NBA is inspiring.

Fournier Evans may have started living the dream of many after signing the Denver Nuggets in 2012, but his professional career didn’t start with a fairy tale. He spent most of his time on the bench. Fournier’s first season with the Nuggets after 73 games, he was only part of 29. Things started to take a turn for Fournier towards the end of the season, however. He began to have a run on the team, starting the Nuggets’ last three games. When a player has such an opportunity, especially after a long period of exclusion, it is always better to take advantage of it. Well, Fournier did. Restore his confidence by recording an average of 12.3 points at the end of the season.

After showing towards the end of the 2012-13 Fournier had another opportunity to prove it was no fluke. The Saint-Maurice-born shooting guard was part of the Nuggets squad for the 2013 NBA Summer League and that move paid off. The Nuggets, feeling his run was no flash in a pan, extended his contract so he could play for them in the 2014-15 season. The decision was soon rewarded with Evans achieving what was then his career-best 27 points against the Sacramento Kings.

A growing reputation and perhaps the need to be on a more efficient team, among other reasons, prompted the Nuggets to trade Fournier for the Orlando Magic. Although he didn’t pass up an opportunity, the Magic quickly took advantage of the fourth-year team option in his contract, guaranteeing that he would be their player until the 2015-16 season.

Fournier was a rising talent, as were his recordings. In his first season with the Magics, he broke his personal best and continued the following season with an all-season record performance, which saw him lead his team in scoring 19 times.
His performances caused the Orlando Magic to resign him to a five-year, $85 million contract. During the 2016 season, Fournier maintained his habit of delivering for his beloved team. On November 3, 2016, he delivered a club-record 29-point performance against the Sacramento Kings.

On January 16, 2018, Fournier scored a career-high 32 points in a victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves. He sprained his left medial collateral ligament on March 7, 2018 during a game against the Lakers and was subsequently ruled out.
