On the other hand, we must not forget Rudy Gobert, voted best defender of the year in the NBA four times, or Stephen Curry, the best three-point shooter in history, Kevin Durant, the best scorer in history under the American jersey, but also Anthony Davis, Joel Embiid and Devin Booker.

A revenge in sight
In Paris, the French men's basketball team is playing in its fourth Olympic final in history after 1948, 2000 and… 2021. In Tokyo, the Blues came up against the Americans, who were out for revenge after an inaugural defeat in the group stage. Vincent Collet has been thinking about this final meeting against Team USA for a long time and is focusing on his preparation for this event: “I had this disappointment on the evening of the final in Tokyo. I had lived my childhood dream, but not to the end. Having this second opportunity is incredible. And we are going to play it to the fullest.” To reach the final, the French took out the German World Champions (73-69) while the Americans were scared by the Serbs (95-91).

In Japan, France had competed and matched Team USA, relying on its size. While Joel Embiid, Bam Adebayo and Anthony Davis have what it takes to compete on the American side, Rudy Gobert, Victor Wembanyama, Mathias Lessort and Guerschon Yabusele intend to have their say. Before this gala clash, coach Vincent Collet has targeted the points on which to press to destabilize the American armada and intends to rely on “Wemby”, the new darling of French and world basketball: “The cards can be redistributed on Saturday against a team with a different profile. Victor discovers very high-level FIBA basketball. It's a very interesting learning experience. He adapts. He's very valuable on the defensive aspects, on the rebound. We don't always realize it. Even one on two he controls and he's perhaps the only one in the world who can do it. His skill ? This type of player always has a great match. And since there is only one left…"
