Vincent Collet will continue being the head coach of the French national team until 2020, given that the team will advance to Tokyo’s Olympics the same year.
Collet was hired by the national team in March 2009, following a disappointing qualifying run towards the EuroBasket 2009, that forced the team to qualify through the additional qualifying round. He led the team to a fifth-place finish, which was good enough to qualify for the 2010 FIBA World Championship.
While coaching France, he has won a gold medal in Eurobasket 2013 in Slovenia, a silver in Eurobasket 2011 in Lithuania and a bronze in Eurobasket 2015 in France.
