Team USA may have won this Saturday night in this Olympic Games final, but the gap with Europe is greatly reduced.

A former NBA player is worried about this, especially with the meteoric rise of Victor Wembanyama.

Despite a great French team, present in the duels, Team USA won the gold medal in these Paris Olympic Games.

It was not easy at all, especially since it took two incredible matches from Stephen Curry to save this team, especially against Serbia in the semi-final.

But in 4 years, it is not certain that the Chief will still be in the game.

France finally ready to take down Team USA?
We already know that LeBron James will probably be retired, while Kevin Durant has no answer to give today.

In short, the Team USA squad will be very different in a few years with a new generation… but can it dominate the rest of the world? After 16 seasons in the NBA, veteran CJ Miles doubts it because of Victor Wembanyama.

After the loss to Team USA, Wembanyama’s punchline: “I’m worried about…

CJ Miles on Victor Wembanyama: “I think once Victor becomes what he inevitably has to become, gold will really be within reach every four years.

We won’t just say, ‘maybe France has a chance’.

It’s really going to change us (Team USA) not knowing who’s going to win.”

In 4 years, we’ll still be able to count on France, Serbia and why not Luka Doncic’s Slovenia.

Team USA knows that the gap is closing, especially without its magic trio.

Because no matter who takes over, no one will replace LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Steph Curry.

Despite everything, Miles remains confident about Team USA’s future in these competitions.

But the dominance should clearly not be the same when we see the new generation.

Europe is getting closer than ever to dethrone the Americans.

Miles: “The future of Team USA is in good hands.

With Anthony Edwards, Tyrese Haliburton, Jayson Tatum.

There are guys like Devin Booker and Bam Adebayo who can also achieve great things.”

CJ Miles has only good things to say about Victor Wembanyama, who could allow France to take a step forward in these international competitions.

A good omen for the future, even if beating Team USA will never be easy.
