French Players in the NBA: Mixed Fortunes, Including San Antonio Spurs’ Heavy Defeat

basketball – Various fortunes for the French in the NBA last night, including the big card suffered by the Spurs on the Indiana floor

Rough evening for Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs. The Frenchman, overwhelmed, was unable to prevent his team’s very heavy defeat on Monday on the Indiana floor (152-111). For his first “back to back” (series of two games over two days), Wemby suffered, finishing the game with 13 points, his second lowest total of the season, and 10 rebounds, with a pitiful 3 out of 12 on shots. .

For coach Gregg Popovich, only guard Keldon Johnson and interior Zach Collins saved the furniture. Wembanyma? “He moved well. But like I said, there are only two guys who played correctly,” “Pop” emphasized.

To see French people shine in the NBA, you had to turn to the veterans. With 14 points and 12 rebounds, Rudy Gobert largely contributed to the big performance of the Wolves, who inflicted their first defeat of the season on the Boston Celtics (114-109 after overtime). The French pivot, even if he took the poster of the night against Jaylen Brown, asserts himself as the boss of the best defense in the League since the start of the season.
