Oscar Wembanyama et Tony Parker

The least we can say is that ASVEL is going through difficult times.

Triple champion of France just two years ago, the club chaired by Tony Parker is currently experiencing major difficulties.

Coincidence or not, this coincides with the departure of a certain Victor Wembanyama who had chosen to spend his last season in France under the jersey of Boulogne-Levallois.

And he was not the only one…

Because following the move of the superstar pivot, other young talents have chosen to set sail in order to exploit their potential to the maximum.

Zaccharie Risacher, who has just been crowned the first choice of the NBA draft, and Matthew Strazel are among them… and we can now also add Oscar Wembanyama to this list, because the younger brother of the Alien will play in Alsace starting next season.

Aged 17, the last member of the Wembanyama siblings also shows some potential on the basketball courts.

Very successful within the ASVEL U18 team, the Tricolore has already attracted the praise of some renowned American observers after having made a notable stint in the United States.

Now, however, he will play in Strasbourg… enough to delight the local fans but also frustrate the Lyonnais.



After his brother, Zaccharie Risacher and Matthew Strazel, Oscar Wembanyama is the next young player to leave ASVEL to flourish elsewhere.

While the club is struggling on the sporting front, this exodus of nuggets is not going to improve its image.
