Les deux anciens coéquipiers aux Celtics, Guerschon Yabusele et Jayson Tatum

While everyone was expecting Victor Wembanyama and Rudy Gobert, it was Guerschon Yabusele who emerged as the MVP of this French team.

In fact, before the final, he sent a big message to the Americans, and especially to his former employer.

The whole world was expecting Victor Wembanyama at these Olympic Games, but the Spurs prodigy is not necessarily as dominant as hoped on the offensive side.

It must be said that FIBA ​​referees allow more contact in the paint, which allows defenses to move him away from the basket and rush him a little.

He is therefore mostly content with long-distance shots, an area in which he does not yet excel.

Fortunately, the French team has the most complete and dominant paint in this tournament, so Wemby can fully concentrate on his defensive tasks.

On the other side of the field, Mathias Lessort does the job with his aggressiveness, as does Guerschon Yabusele.

The Blues’ top scorer with 17 points against Germany, the “Dancing Bear” confirmed his status as French MVP.

Guerschon Yabusele’s call to the Celtics!

Now, it’s time for a final that will make history against Team USA.

The latter showed in their semi-final that they were not invincible, but they will have to have a perfect match to hope to beat them.

Yabusele is already highly motivated at the idea of ​​taking revenge on the one lost in Tokyo, but also to send a message to his former employer:

Guerschon Yabusele, who recognized me, said to me with a smile: “You have to tell the Celtics that they have to re-sign me.”

Guerschon Yabusele is a Real Madrid executive, one of the best players in Europe, he has the level to play in the NBA.

Moreover, according to this little interaction with a journalist from Boston, he would not be against a second stint with the reigning champions… Financially it would be very advantageous for him, but perhaps a little less sportingly.

Despite his talent and his experience at the very highest European level, he will never pass Jayson Tatum in the rotation and should therefore be content with a few minutes each evening.

Obviously this request was made in a humorous tone, and he should continue his career in the greatest sports institution on the planet.

There are worse situations.

Guerschon Yabusele is one of those players who didn’t get a chance in the NBA, even though he had the talent to make it.

At 28, he’ll be able to take a little revenge in the Olympic final.
