While Fenerbahce and Olympiacos went up against each other in the do-or-die Game 5 of their EuroLeague Playoffs series, Victor Wembanyama stole the show once again in France, leading Boulogne-Levallois Metropolitans 92 to the 82-72 on-the-road win against Nanterre.
The next 1st pick in the 2023 NBA Draft had a huge performance against his former team, putting up a double-double of 25 points and 17 rebounds, shooting 12/15 at the line. After the first quarter, he was really close to the double-double with 14 points, 9 rebounds, and 3 blocks, with a huge stat line.
Elsewhere, in the second-to-last domestic game of the Regular Season, ASVEL crushed ADA Blois 102-77. Nando De Colo was the MVP for the black-and-white side, scoring 25 points.
