Less than three weeks from the Draft 2023 (June 22), Victor Wembanyama And Bilal Coulibaly are not yet ready to turn to their NBA careers, and instead they continue to make observers salivate. Victorious in the snatch of Asvel (71-69) in the fourth match of this semi-final of Betclic EliteTHE Met 92 won their ticket for the final of the French championship!
Respectively authors of 15 points, 7 rebounds, 5 blocks (at 6/15 in the shoot) and 16 points (7/12) at the Astroballe, Victor Wembanyama and Bilal Coulibaly guided Boulogne-Levallois in turn, on each side of the floor.
On arrival, with seriousness and like veterans, Vincent Collet’s men therefore achieved a real feat in Rhone lands, because they simply offered themselves the scalp of the triple title holders (2019, 2021 and 2022).
Not one, not two… FIVE BLOCKS from Wemby 🙅♂️

In the final, the obstacle will be significant for the Mets 92, since they will now have to challenge Monaco, which has just finished in 3rd place in the Euroleague. But with a Wembanyama / Coulibaly tandem at this level and with “role players” like Barry Brown Jr, Lahaou Konaté or TaShawn Thomas, the Ile-de-France residents can dream of the title.
Highlights to come…
