NBA addicts around the world will be able to discover the Ekinox of Bourg-en-Bresse on Saturday.
You're not dreaming, it's one of the most WTF effects of the total
hype
across the Atlantic around Victor Wembanyama.
The American League announced on Thursday that it was going to broadcast “all the matches” of Betclic Elite from Boulogne-Levallois, where the great French hopeful, highly anticipated to be number 1 in the next NBA draft, evolves.
The meetings of the French regular season and possible play-offs of the Metropolitans 92 will therefore be offered free and live on the NBA App from Saturday (8 p.m.), starting with this match of the 7th day in Bourg-en-Bresse , which suddenly fascinates the crowds.
Will also be broadcast on this new application launched a month ago the Leaders Cup, which will take place from February 17 to 19 in Saint-Chamond (Loire) the eight best teams of the first leg and the All Star Game on December 29 in Bercy (our little finger tells us that the great Victor will be there).
His cards against Ignite changed everything
The Betclic Elite will be “the first championship not affiliated with the NBA” to be broadcast live on the NBA App, as the press release specifies.
Victor Wembanyama (18 years old, 2.21 m) has especially panicked the American league since a promotional tour with the "Mets", at the beginning of October near Las Vegas, at the initiative of the NBA in order to make him better known to fans, players, scouts and managers.

His two performances against the Ignite team of G-League, a league created and managed by the NBA, reinforced his status as the big favorite for the next draft, in June 2023. His two personal cards (37 and 36 points) earned rave reviews from American stars like LeBron James and Stephen Curry, who were blown away by the mutant versatility of a player of his height and stature (2.43m).
