After saying no to the Blues for the 2023 World Cup, the young interior once again affirms his ambition of wanting to be part of the Olympic team next summer in Paris.

There is little doubt about his participation, but Victor Wembanyama has once again affirmed his desire to participate in the Olympic Games with the French team this summer in Paris. “It has obviously been the major event in French basketball for several years. Like I said, I want to play every time. So yes, if I am selected, if I am available, I want to play, of course“, declared “Wemby” after the Spurs’ defeat (115-117) against the Cavaliers on Sunday evening.

Aged 20, Wembanyama decided not to participate in the 2023 World Cup last summer, after having long explained that he would like to be there. Vincent Collet had even planned to select him. “I wanted to play. I want to play every time I can represent my country. But the thing is, I want to be here for the next 15 years, not just for one summer. We therefore had to be intelligent, even if it is sometimes a difficult choice to make. added the Spurs player regarding the World Cup. Wembanyama has already defended the blue jersey four times.
