One of the biggest basketball prospects to emerge since LeBron James has officially declared for the 2023 NBA Draft, as Victor Wembanyama submitted paperwork to the league office on Friday.
The 19-year-old is already extremely well known in the world having gone viral on multiple occasions as he showcased the skills for Metropolitans 92 in France, skills which have NBA franchises drooling at the prospect of landing the teenager.
The Frenchman is already considered a generational talent and is widely projected to be the no.1 pick in June's Draft, so it was always a matter of when, not if, he would declare. And there is now huge anticipation as to where the seven-foot-four athlete will end up after dominating in his native league even before making it out of his teenage years.
