LeBron James has been the face of American basketball since 2003. Due to his undeniable talent and his meteoric progression in the NBA, Victor Wembanyama could ultimately succeed him. However, according to Denzel Washington, we must not skip ahead even though the French basketball star is unfair to others because of his XXL qualities.
Victor Wembanyama was the first Frenchman to be number one in the draft NBA. It was 2023 and it landed at Saint Anthony under the orders of Gregg Popovich to Spurs with whom his eldest Tony Parker shone by winning four NBA championship rings between 2003 and 2014. Elected rookie of the regular season, Wembanyama impressed the All–Star Chris Paul who became his teammate in the offseason. “I wish you could see the work he does day in and day out. You know how talented he is, but he has this drive to get better, to want to work on things. The more matches we play, the more I think we will become familiar with each other.”

«Pour lui, sky is the limit»
Denzel Washington is an inveterate fan of Los Angeles Lakers and was in Paris for the promotion of Gladiator II. Impressed by the emergence of Victor Wembanyamahe sang his praises to The Team. “It’s not fair, someone so big who can shoot from so far and who is so good… For him, the sky is the limit. And the best thing that ever happened to him was going to San Antonio. He has one of the best coaches possible, Gregg Popovich, who will build him step by step. It will pay off. His best years are obviously ahead of him.”
“The new LeBron James? It’s too early to say…”
Denzel Washington was relaunched by the journalist from The Team concerning his future and the fact that he can follow in the footsteps of LeBron Jamesjust that. “It’s too early to tell…”. Victor Wembanyama became on the night of Monday to Tuesday the 6th player in the history of the NBA to compile 1700 points, 800 rebounds and 300 assists after only 82 games. A classification in which the names of Blake Griffin, Larry Bird, Kareem Abdul–Jabbar, Sidney Wicks et Oscar Robertson appear, but not LeBron James. The animal begins his legend on the other side of the Atlantic!
