Victor Wembanyama did not hide a certain disappointment after this silver medal in these Olympic Games.

The Frenchman clearly wanted gold at home, in front of his home crowd, but his time will come.

The competition has been warned.

It is now time to digest for the French basketball team, aware that it has had a great run in these Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

Gold is not at the end, of course, but Vincent Collet’s men shone in these final stages, like a Victor Wembanyama rediscovered in these finals.

And the best is yet to come for the phenomenon.

Across the Atlantic, we are already wary of the 2028 Olympics, which will take place in Los Angeles as a reminder.

First of all because Steph Curry, LeBron James and Kevin Durant will probably not be there, then because Wembanyama will gain momentum during these 4 long years.

A meteoric rise in sight, and not good at all for the competition.

Victor Wembanyama confident for the future of the Blues
Despite a different French team in the future, without Nicolas Batum or Nando de Colo, Wemby remains confident for the next deadlines.

In recent comments to the press on Sunday, the Frenchman already better measures the feat accomplished, especially at home.

An unforgettable experience for a young player of barely 20 years old.

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

Victor Wembanyama (comments via l’Equipe): “The only time I really realized that I was at the Olympics was during the warm-up for the final.

In fact, I said to myself, it’s now, the Olympic final, at 20 years old.

It was very special, a truly incredible experience and in terms of learning, it’s just unimaginable.

You can’t expect to learn as much before wearing this jersey.”

“The taste of the silver medal? There’s pride and a little bitter taste.

As I was just saying, we don’t have many regrets, we did everything to try to get the gold medal and all we need is time. A little patience and we’ll get it one day.”

The gold medal for the Blues? That will be the goal from 2028, with we hope a quality roster with the very probable addition of Nolan Traoré at the helm for example.

Promising for the Blues, even if Team USA will never be easy to beat, not with this new generation. In any case, Wembanyama seems to be making an appointment for 2028.

Victor Wembanyama is still a little disappointed after the defeat, but you can count on him to feed on this disappointment to strike even harder in 2028.

Whether we are talking about Team USA or the other nations, everyone can fear the worst.
