Victor Wembanyama: 'I'm prepared for the NBA, I have no worries'
Beaten 3-0 in the Betclic ÉLITE final in France with the Metropolitans 92 by AS Monaco, Victor Wembanyama played his last match in the French league before flying to the United States and the NBA. “I feel like I’m closing part of my life, but for my loved ones too. It’s the end of one stage and the beginning of a new one. Everyone congratulated me for what I did this year and wished me good luck for the future. I’m prepared for the NBA, I have no worries“, Wembanyama said via Be Basket.

Victor Wembanyama opens the 2023-24 season as the Rookie of the Year favorite. Scoot Henderson and Chet Holmgren are essentially tied for second.
I think there could be some Henderson value depending on where he goes, but the odds aren’t long enough to bet against Victor yet. pic.twitter.com/fOppRyDGxY – 3:01 PM

More on this storyline
Did you expect to achieve such a season? Victor Wembanyama: “In my dreams and my goals, I wanted to win the French championship. There are still obstacles on the road but it is still an honor to have been able to look AS Monaco in the eye in two of the three matches. The Roca Team certainly finished third in the EuroLeague but for me, it is one of the 30 best teams in the world (NBA included). If I take stock of this season, I am proud of this young group, so united. We had ups and downs but we always knew how to bounce back. We worked, we got hurt. We arrived at a stage of the competition where we were not necessarily expected. When I look at my team and everything that’s happened, I’m just proud of my guys“. -via EuroHoops.net / June 16, 2023

Sources say the team has already rebuffed several offers for the No. 1 pick, with Victor Wembanyama as its unquestioned target. But the Spurs have landed the most coveted draft prospect in a very long time. -via Bleacher Report / June 15, 2023
