Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe was in attendance to watch Victor Wembanyama play for Metropolitans 92 in their final regular season game against Paris Basketball.
Wembanyama, 19, only officially declared for the 2023 NBA draft last month - but it has long since been a foregone conclusion that the France international will be this year's number one pick. Therefore, the draft lottery, which takes place on Tuesday night in Chicago, will effectively decide where the 7ft 4in player ends up.
Despite being the star attraction, Wembanyama will not be at the lottery due to his continuing club commitments. The LNB Pro A regular season does not end until tomorrow, with the postseason to follow.
