NBA Basketball News: Bad news for NBA basketball fans in Indonesia. The reason is that Victor Wembanyama has decided to sit out the FIBA Basketball World Cup.
In an interview, Victor Wembanyama said the San Antonio Spurs were supportive regardless of his decision. The 19-year-old has already consulted with his medical staff. In fact, it also predicted which matches will be followed for two years.
“In terms of development and health, this is unrealistic. I hope people will understand. The France team is important to me. I want to win as many titles as possible with the team. But it’s a necessary sacrifice,” Wemby said, as quoted by L’Equipe newspaper.
At the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023, France are in Group H. They will face Canada, Lebanon and Latvia. The FIBA Basketball World Cup will be held in Indonesia from August 25 to September 3 for the group stage
. In his final season with the Metropolitans 92 in Ligue 1, Wemby played 62 games. Including his first season at Spurs and the Olympics in France, Webby is expected to play 170 games in 24 months.
There will be more if you add matches to the FIBA Basketball World Cup. Webby also plans to play for Spurs in the Summer League. The tournament will take place from July 3 to 17. Meanwhile, France are expected to arrive in Jakarta on August 20, 2023. They will play their first match against Canada on August 25 at Indonesia Arena and will be one of the most anticipated matches of the event.
