When the NBA comes to Europe, it’s always a big deal. So it was natural to see a lot of VIP and popular faces watching the Chicago Bulls’ victory against the Detroit Pistons.
Among them, there were also Magic Johnson and the projected #1 pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, Victor Wembanyama. The American legend shared on his social media platforms their meeting.
“I had the chance to meet and talk to the best player in the world and this year’s number one pick in the NBA draft Victor Wembanyama!”, the # pick in the 1979 NBA Draft said.
Victor Wembanyama is pushing Boulogne-Levallois Metropolitans 92 (17-4) high in the LNB Standings, just behind EuroLeague AS Monaco.
The 18-year-old superstar is averaging 21.4 points and 9.4 rebounds in the 2022-23 French League. He was also named MVP of the All-Star Game of the LNB, where he averaged a double-double of 27 points and 12 rebounds.
