Wembanayma had another favorite sport and was even a big fan of this athlete

When he was younger, Victor Wembanyama was torn between football and basketball. For two years, he practiced these two physical activities. The giant ended up choosing the orange ball. But he nevertheless keeps a close eye on this discipline. The French giant even revealed one of its favorite players in February 2023. “One of my favorite athletes was Manuel Neuer, because I was also a goalkeeper. In fact, what I like about him , is that his game somewhat reflects mine in basketball. He often does crazy things that you wouldn’t expect from him. The Betclic Elite 2023 finalist also tried Judo without ever pushing.
