Before Victor Wembanyama, pearl of French basketball, set out to conquer America, it was a little bit of America that came to him on Sunday, on the sidelines of the match lost by Boulogne-Levallois, his team, against Monaco ( 95- 82 ap), during the 12th day of Betclic Élite.
Indeed, among the spectators was Michael Douglas, the American actor (78 years old), winner of an Oscar in 1987 and seen in particular in the films Romancing the Green Diamond, Fatal Affair, Wall Street, Basic Instinct, The Game or Traffic .
“Victor is very impressive”
Interviewed by BeIN Sports, Douglas declared, first in French, the language he speaks, then in English, that he was present for the second time at the Marcel-Cerdan sports hall in Levallois. ” Like the others, I want to see Victorhe has declared. Is very good. It’s a good game. Victor is very impressive. He moves beautifully. His family is very nice, he has very talented brothers. I wish him the best. »
Michael Douglas is a big fan of basketball and, in the NBA, he supports the Miami Heat. If he admitted, which seems obvious, that Wembanyama will be the first pick of the next draft, he also admitted that his favorite team had very little chance of acquiring the French pearl. But Douglas made it clear that he still kind of believed it.
