Top scorer T.J. Warren joins Paris

Having showcased his full potential in North America, the man with 5,513 points in the NBA is ready to set the scoring records alight on the Old Continent. Even at secondary school, T.J. Warren was ranked among the top 40 most promising prospects in the United States. A status he confirmed in the NCAA! Playing for the NC State Wolfpack, he enjoyed a sophomore season averaging over 26 points, which earned him the title of conference MVP. 

Selected 14th overall in the 2014 Draft, the North Carolina native played for the Phoenix Suns for nearly five years. Despite a slow start hampered by a few niggles, T.J. Warren progressed to secure a place in the starting five. In his final season in Arizona, he notably recorded five consecutive games with over 20 points. The forward has continued this excellent form with the Pacers. As well as making his play-off debut, he caused a sensation on 2 August 2020 by scoring 53 points against the Philadelphia 76ers – a feat not seen in Indiana since 1992 ! 

This superb performance in the Orlando bubble was followed by spells with the Brooklyn Nets, the Phoenix Suns and the Minnesota Timberwolves. Then, in October 2024, T.J. Warren decided to sign for the Westchester Knicks, where he enjoyed two absolutely incredible seasons. Having emerged as his team’s leader, the forward racked up numerous games in which he scored over 20 points. These performances earned him a place in the 2025 All-NBA G League Third Team.
