Joel Embiid will he play with the French team during the 2024 Olympic Games? The FFBB asked the reigning MVP to give it a definitive answer by October 10.
Questioned on the subject on the occasion of the Sixers’ “media day”, marked by the absence of James Hardenthe Philadelphia pivot explained that he had not yet chosen, but that he would decide quickly.
“I have three options (Cameroon, France, United States). My goal is to participate in the Olympic Games. I like all three options. If Cameroon qualified for the Olympics, it would be an easy decision to make, but that is not the case yet. It’s a difficult choice, but I will probably make this decision in the coming days.”
