Chet Holmgren on Lu Dort not getting
All Defense/DPOY recognition:
“I don’t know what more he can do honestly.
He deserves more votes, more recognition for that stuff.
Nobody should have to say it, it should be obvious.
I think these playoffs opened some eyes.” – 4:10 PM

I thought we were gonna win.” He credits SGA for passing in that situation, noting he had 36 points.

Following his first campaign in the NBA, Victor Wembanyama focuses on expanding his international career to the 2024 Olympic Games. Before returning to the United States for a few days, he talked about his role with the senior national team of France on Saturday. “I am happy to be on the preliminary list,” he smiled referring to call-ups announced by the French Federation of Basketball, per L’Equipe, “It will be an honor to share the court with such experienced players.” -via EuroHoops.net / May 19, 2024
Last season, the Metropolitans competed in the French Betclic Elite finals, and because of Victor Wembanyama, the whole basketball world watched. However, they were relegated from the top tier in France this season, and according to Le Parisien, they will ‘disappear.’ Reportedly, the leaders of Metropolitans 92 have decided not to re-enter the club for the next season. -via EuroHoops.net / May 14, 2024
