There’s something going on in the water in France. Victor Wembanyama, the 7-foot-3-ish 18-year-old, is taking the basketball world by storm with his unicorn talent. But he’s not the only French teenager looking mythical.
On Friday, outlets on Twitter took note of 16-year-old Dominique Malonga thanks to a tweet from French sports agency Comsport. In it, the 6-foot-6 girl was running a drill and dunked, seemingly using minimal effort to get up to the rim and slam it home.
She signed with Tony Parker’s ASVEL club in 2021. At the time, the former San Antonio Spurs star called Malonga “the female version of Victor Wembanyama.”
