Wembanyama shows two-way talent in loss

Top 2023 NBA draft prospect Victor Wembanyama continues to catch the eye of the basketball world with his superstar potential.

The 18-year-old, 7-foot-4 sensation has consistently produced for his team, Paris-based Metropolitans 92, and that trend continued in his latest outing against Strasbourg.

Wembanyama put up a 26-point,18-rebound double-double in his last game of the calendar year, but Metro 92 fell 84-81.

His 8-foot wingspan was on full display on both sides of the floor in Monday’s LNB Betclic Elite game.
