The France men’s national basketball team lost to Australia, 83-82 on Sunday evening in Orléans.
Washington Wizards guard Bilal Coulibaly was limited in game action today if you were wondering so he won’t be the focus of this piece.
That said, Victor Wembanyama had a near triple double tonight, with 17 points, 12 rebounds and 8 assists. He also did so while playing 26 minutes, which isn’t THAT much time when you think about it. Nicolas Batum also added 12 more points.
For the Boomers, this was a big time performance for their stars. Patty Mills scored 24 points while Josh Giddey added 20 more.
