According to reports, Wembanyama expressed his excitement during an interview with French media, saying, "To showcase exceptional strength at the Olympics is a great story. I will participate in the Olympics, and I have no other goal except for the gold medal." At last year's Tokyo Olympics, the French men's basketball team unfortunately won the silver medal after losing to the United States in the gold medal match with a score of 82-87.
In preparation for the upcoming NBA rookie season, Wembanyama chose to skip this year's World Cup, and many Olympic silver medalists from the French team are also eagerly awaiting.
Surprisingly, the French team was eliminated in the group stage of the World Cup, causing a stir among fans. However, it is fortunate that France, as the host of the Olympics next year, still has the qualification to compete. Regarding the disappointment of the French team's loss at the World Cup, Wembanyama said, "It is undoubtedly disappointing, but what can I say? I was not there at the time." This French basketball superstar is now looking forward to the Olympics next year, hoping to shine on the home court in Paris and bring home the gold medal for France.
