Teammates in the French team, Victor Wembanyama and Guerschon Yabusele could also evolve together next season in San Antonio. Spurs would be very interested in the idea of associating their French superstar with his compatriot, who is evolving today under the colors of Philadelphia and will be a free agent this summer. Even if the Sixers would like to keep the “Dancing Bear”.
Teammates with the Blues, Victor Wembanyama and Guerschon Yabusele (29 years old, 2.01m) could also evolve side by side next season in the NBA. San Antonio, who already counts among his ranks the French superstar unfortunately forced to give up the last five months of the season after the doctors discovered a venous thrombosis on the right shoulder on the return of the All Star Game return last February, would indeed lead to bring the two French internationals together and to associate the winger of the Sixers with their star pivot.
Back in the NBA this season after having abandoned the North American and Boston championship-his only franchise since he had been drafted by the Celtics in 2016 (in 16th position)-for China (Nanjing), ASVEL and Real Madrid, the “Dancing Bear”, forced to pay almost two million euros to the Real to be able NBA with Philadelphia.
The silver medalist of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games last summer with the Blues to whom he had brought all his power but also his long-distance address turned 11 points to more than 50% of success in the shots, including 38% at three points, but also to 5.6 rebounds per game since his comeback, knowing that he was entitled to 27.1 minutes of play each evening, with 70 games played in total.
Spurs ready to forcing to bring Yabusele?
Free agent this summer, the native of Dreux, who did not hide that he would make a priority of the playing time that would be offered to him but also of the project that would be proposed to him, should not lack solicitations, he who proved in Pennsylvania that he could also evolve in a pivotal role. According to the media
HoopshypeSpurs would be the most interested in French to date.
However, as far as possible, the Sixers would like to be able to keep their former sixth man of the season, who had ended up winning his place in the major five. Even if the Texans should not take the risk of fully betting their $ 14 million envelope on Yabusele, they could consent to offer him a large part. It remains to be seen if it will convince the one who could above all be tempted by the prospect of playing with “Wemby”. There is no doubt that the prospect of finding his partner in the French team also packs the first number 1 of the NBA Draft.
