For the Wembanyamas, basketball is a family affair. If Victor crystallizes a good part of the attention via his meteoric rise to the NBA Draft, his brother Oscar is also beginning to envisage a future orange ball in hand. Moreover, the teenager recently joined a club that he obviously knows very well…
Victor Wembanyama lived his last summer more or less peacefully. Recently left ASVEL to everyone’s surprise to sign for Boulogne-Levallois, the one who makes the whole basketball world salivate has only one season left before making the leap to the NBA. And if the Parisian is obviously the name in vogue when we talk about tricolors and orange ball at the moment, he is not the only representative of his family to hope for a bright future in the world of basketball.
In addition to Eve Wembanyama, the big sister who plays in LF2, a certain Oscar Wembanyama is trying to make his mark. Aged 15, tall and inner player like the rest of his siblings, Victor’s little brother recently packed his bags and left his native Ile-de-France. Direction… Lyon!
Oscar Wembanyama goes to ASVEL!
???? U18 recruitment alert ????
He will join Mike Happio’s group from the 2022-2023 season ????#TeamASVEL pic.twitter.com/LZtedZQMyl— ASVEL BASKET ⚪️⚫️ (@asvelbasketasso) June 14, 2022
Under the orders of Mike Happio, the young Wembanyama will have plenty of time to perfect his basketball, he who has already distinguished himself with a few brilliant shots on the side of the U15 Elite of Nanterre. It is now the step above that awaits Victor’s brother, with, why not, a place in the roster of French champions in a few years if he has the qualities.
A Wembanyama can hide another, and while Victor has left Lyon, it is his little brother Oscar who has just taken over in the Rhône. We obviously wish him a similar trajectory and development as convincing as that of his eldest!
