NBA (DR)
The 2023-24 season officially no longer contains any sporting issues for San Antonio and Victor Wembanyama. So what will the next few weeks look like for the French pivot? The latter decided bluntly on the subject, while he also has the Paris Olympic Games in mind.
Beaten again by the Warriors last night, the Spurs are now down to just 14 wins and 51 losses.
This was expected before the start of the regular campaign, but the current group is far too weak to be competitive.
Unsurprisingly, the Texans are therefore among the first teams to know that they will be on vacation from mid-April:

The Spurs have been eliminated from the playoff race. Wemby misses the playoffs in his first season.
Drafted in first position last June, Victor Wembanyama will therefore have to wait a little longer before experiencing the post-season.
However, it will not be for lack of having given everything since he is the clear favorite for Rookie of the Year, he who displays averages of nearly 21 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists and more than three blocks per game.
Wemby refuses rest ahead of Paris Olympics
Above all, he was regularly present since the V only missed 8 matches.
While San Antonio has nothing left to play, we could therefore think that he will be preserved at the end of the year, especially since we expect him to be part of the French team this summer to compete in the Olympic Games.
But as he explained to journalists, the Habs categorically refuse this possibility and want to continue to accumulate minutes:
Wemby, responding to a question from @_Andrew_Lopez about how much he wants to continue playing until the end of the season, even as the Olympics loom, "It's no question for me. How much do I want it? As much as I wanted it all season. I have this responsibility towards my team."

Wemby, responding to a question from Andrew Lopez about his willingness to continue playing until the end of the regular season, even as the Olympics approach, “There’s no debate for me.
How much do I want it? As much as I wanted to throughout this season.
I have this responsibility to my team. »
Victor Wembanyama knows that he has nothing more to play with Spurs, but he wants to take the opportunity to gain experience. Not a bad idea but be careful not to pull on the rope too much and risk injury. Knowing Gregg Popovich and his history with Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili, that shouldn’t be a problem.
