4-time NBA champion Tony Parker says the Spurs is the 'perfect place' for Victor Wembanyama

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Tony Parker surely knows what he’s talking about when it comes to the San Antonio Spurs. And, no surprise, the four-time NBA champion told The Associated Press on Friday he sees a bright future at his former team for fellow Frenchman Victor Wembanyama.

Parker, who is now retired, played 17 seasons for the Spurs. He won NBA titles with the team in 2003, 2005, 2007 and 2014, so knows the franchise inside out. He told the AP in a phone interview it will be the "perfect place'' for the 19-year-old French wonder, the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft.
