Is Dame Sarr related to NBA player?
The Duke star Sarr is not related to an NBA player.
There have been two NBA players in the last decade with that last name, though.
Alex Sarr and his brother
Alex Sarr was the No. 2 overall pick of the 2024 NBA Draft out of France.
His older brother is Olivier Sarr, who played three years in the NBA after being a standout at Kentucky.
Alex Sarr hails from France, while Dame Sarr hails from Italy.
Dame Sarr should also have an NBA future, whether as a one-and-done or a bit further down the road.
But the only known siblings of Dame Sarr are younger, not older.
