The result is finally known. It is the San Antonio Spurs who will first choose the player of their choice in the June 22 draft, according to the lottery carried out on Tuesday, May 16. They should, unless surprised, take the opportunity to select the French prodigy Victor Wembanyama, called to make his debut in the NBA.

The hope of world basketball, aged 19 and measuring 2.21 meters, is indeed the big favorite to be the number 1 in the draft. He is the most highly rated of the 60 candidates who will be recruited one by one, over two rounds, by the thirty franchises of the most competitive basketball championship in the world.

No player had been so expected in the United States since LeBron James, exactly twenty years ago. The current player of the Metropolitans of Boulogne-Levallois (Hauts-de-Seine) will land in the American championship having already conquered the United States. In the fall of 2022, his domination during the two exhibition matches played in Las Vegas by the Metropolitans against a team made up of other talents likely to be drafted had convinced the ultimate refractories.
