Moving from one French team to another, Yakuba Ouattara signed for Paris Basketball, staying in the EuroLeague and trying to bring more experience to the competition’s rookies.
With the red-and-white side since 2021 on his third stint with the team, the 32-year-old guard left as Roca Team’s captain. He previously stayed in the Principality also from 2015 to 2017 and from 2018 to 2020.
When he hasn’t played for Monaco in his 12-year professional career, Yakuba Ouattara spent time with Elan Chalon and Delain in his early French league days, with the Long-Island Nets in 2017-18 – while also making one official appearance in Brooklyn -, and with Betis Baloncesto in 2020-21.
