It is four weeks from the NBA Draft and the projected No. 1 pick, Victor Wembanyama, is still playing meaningful and competitive basketball over in France. Wembanyama led his French team, Boulogne-Levallois Metropolitans 92, in an elimination Game 3 win over Cholet to advance to the LNB Pro A semifinals where Wembanyama will face his old team, ASVEL, in a best-of-five series.
Wembanyama was impactful, playing 33 minutes in the 81-69 win over Cholet on their home court with Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert taking in the playoff action sitting courtside.
