With Luka, Joker, Giannis, Embiid and Victor Wembanyama on deck it could be quite a while before we see another American born MVP. – 11:51 PM

It’s a public secret that at least several NBA teams will be tanking for a chance to draft Victor Wembanyama next year.
The French prospect addressed tanking for him and talked about how he prepares for his career in the NBA 🤔

FC Barcelona had a chance to land Victor Wembanyama in Catalonia 😯
However, things did not work out, and Wemby has an explanation for that:

More on this storyline
Wembanyama was offered to stay in Barcelona, but he decided to return to France and continue his development in his home country. After four years, Wembanyama revealed that the Catalan coaches didn’t dare to tell him what he was doing wrong at that time. That was the primary reason he chose France over Spain. “This is one of the reasons, but there were others. I like to progress, and I need to challenge myself, so yes, I like to be told things clearly, even if it can be unpleasant to hear,” he told Le Parisien. -via BasketNews / December 29, 2022
“To tell the truth, I’m even more flattered when someone outside basketball compliments me. When it’s Michael Douglas, for example. It’s very nice and a bit dreamy. If it’s someone from basketball, I tell myself that it’s somebody I will have to play against one day or against whom I will have to put a powerful dunk. That changes the perspective of the compliment,” the 18-year-old added. -via BasketNews / December 29, 2022
“Tanking? It’s a weird strategy,” Wembanyama addressed the issue. “I find it unreasonable, and I try not to think about it. I also heard that the NBA considered changing a few rules for me, but that doesn’t concern me.” -via BasketNews / December 29, 2022
