LeBron James et Victor Wembanyama

While Victor Wembanyama is having a good Olympic Games so far, with a great defensive presence, the Frenchman will be very important in the future of the French team.

And for some, Team USA should quickly be wary.

The French team challenges Team USA this Saturday night for the gold medal, with Victor Wembanyama expected to turn the corner.

Clumsy with his shot until now, the Frenchman remains valuable in Vincent Collet’s system.

His defense is excellent and his simple presence forces opposing attacks to adjust, even if LeBron James and his teammates will be very motivated.

That doesn’t prevent the future from looking bright for Wembanyama.

It will probably be his only Olympics at home, in front of the French public, but count on him to compete in this competition again, for example in Los Angeles in 2028.

Bad news for the competition, especially since Wemby will have progressed a lot by then.

Team USA threatened by Victor Wembanyama in the future?

If injuries don’t hinder his progress, Wembanyama has everything it takes to become one of the greatest players in the world.

Some already imagine him in the GOAT conversation, like journalist David Dennis Jr, very enthusiastic about the player’s future.

And according to him, Team USA should be wary for the next editions.

David Dennis Jr: “Team USA has to understand that.

You can debate what Wemby is going to do this Saturday right now, but these are the last Olympics where Wemby will not be the best player you will have to face when you are at the 2028 Olympic Games.”

It must be said that in 4 years, Wemby will probably have progressed a lot in his game, with why not a status as the best player in the world? Too early to tell, but Team USA is wary of the player.

This Saturday night, however, Team USA remains the clear favorite to try to win this match.

But Wembanyama is not the only danger, not with the form of Isaia Cordinier or Guerschon Yabusele.


let’s give Wemby a few years before we put him at the GOAT level.

His resume is still being written.

Victor Wembanyama will be a big problem for Team USA, whether we’re talking about this Saturday night for the grand finale or in 4 years in Los Angeles.

A great career in sight for the Frenchman… provided he avoids injuries.
