“The Young Star Game was our first step into basketball, the spark that led to our partnership with the Spurs, and we’re proud to double down as its naming partner. This is more than a game; it’s a statement about the future we believe in. These young athletes embody the same excellence, drive, and resilience we champion at Ledger. Together we’re building the next era of ownership, where talent meets technology, and financial literacy becomes a form of empowerment, all from our home country of France.”

What is the Ledger Young Star Game?
The Ledger Young Star Game is a complete, two-day experience inspired by major American pre-Draft camps. For the 20 selected talents, it’s an opportunity to experience conditions similar to those faced by NBA prospects, including physical tests, technical evaluations, media interviews, and crucial exposure to international scouts.
The inaugural event was a landmark success, bringing together over 2,300 spectators and 27 NBA scouts from 20 franchises, and resulting in three players being drafted into the NBA:
- Nolan Traoré – 19th Pick → Brooklyn Nets
- Noah Penda – 32nd Pick → Orlando Magic
- Mohamed Diawara – 51st Pick → New York Knicks
Building on the resounding success of its first edition, the Ledger Young Star Game returns March 3-4, 2026, at the Palais des Sports Marcel-Cerdan in Levallois-Perret.
