Victor Wembanyama reflects on Spurs’ ‘amazing’ two-game stay in Paris

The final number of Victor and YumanamaJourney to Paris: Two games, 50 points, 23 rebounds, eight passes, six blocks, two allocated trials, one trip to Eiffel Tower, the appearance of Fashion Week, a Champions League I attended the match and about a million five.

And one victory. The two he wanted from this return to the homeland was not. But there were a large number of other moments to return this trip to Paris worth remembering.

“This week was amazing,” Wimbanama said. “I only saw my family. I am not trying to be emotional, but everyone did their job to make this week incredible.”

The result of Saturday was not what he wanted: Indiana 136, San Antonio 98 was the final, with Teres Haleporton Record 28 for purres. But there was at least one thing that is like Wimbanama, somewhat. He pointed out during the Olympic Games that the French are very excited about the national anthem, and that when it is implemented before sporting events, the fans tend to produce the performer by singing themselves.

This was not exactly the case on Thursday, when the Spears-Bakers series started. It is clear that the attraction of Wimabania has heard by the French over the next 48 hours; The sounds of the stands were much higher on Saturday. He was still exactly what he wanted, but he was better.

“I appreciate the effort,” Wimbanama said.

He and Spears fell on Monday, and he soon took his team to a dinner and a shopping trip. Tuesday, he returned to his hometown of Le Chesnay and devoted a pair of outdoor stadiums before appearing at the Fashion Week. It was in a Paris S. Football match against Manchester City Wednesday. The game was 1 on Thursday, the Eiffel Tower on Friday, the game 2 on Saturday, then returned to San Antonio.

There was a lot on the flight line.

“I cannot imagine what it had to return to home and play.” Chris Paul He said. “I know he was very excited, but there is a lot of responsibility that comes with that. Every media outlet, every event, is trying to see your family so that you don’t see it much. And you are one of these men trying to sign every signature.”

Webanyama took control of the opening match on Thursday, where he scored 30 points and acquired 11 rebounds in San Antonio’s 30 points. The Pacers team made the focus point in an attempt to do a better job against it on Saturday, and Indiana coach Rick Carlel felt that his team did so completely.

It was not a mistake. Paces was aggressive and they did not allow Webanyama to enter any kind of prolonged rhythm. But even Carlal was a little surprised when he looked at the post -statistical paper and saw that Wimabania had ended with 20 points and 12 rebounds.

“You do not stop this man,” Carliel said. “He still has 20 and 12”.

Wimabania Wuttenham resisted a deficit at the end of the first half 15 points, briefly ranked third, then they collapsed when Bespers fled.

“At some point, he will look at this matter and realize what the treatment was,” Paul said. “We hope to win two games for him.”

It is not known when Wembanyama will play in France again. He loves to be part of the games in Paris every year, and while it seems a safe bet The American Professional League Spears will one day repeat, the annual occurrence may be unlikely.

He knows this, and this is one of the reasons that he tried to cherish every second of this trip.

“I made my best to make this week special for my team, for my family, my friends.” “But people still find ways to surprise me, to make things feel important to them, and I am important to them. Therefore, it is invaluable.”
