Things That Make You Say Hmm: Victor Wembanyama's Ties To Spurs Players, Claims All Of France Wanted Them To Win The Lottery

I was wondering when the first conspiracy theory would come out. This seems to be it. Those pesky big market teams like the Spurs are always catching the breaks and frankly I'm sick of it. You have Victor out here admitting all of France wanted the Spurs to win the lottery. They just want to rotate their Tony Parker jerseys into whatever number Wemby wears, maybe even number 9: 

It might go deeper than just that quote though. The team that Victor currently plays for? Owned by Boris Diaw. Yes, this Boris Diaw

I still love Diaw though. Dude would get chunky, come back to the Spurs and be the difference maker in the Finals. Impossible not to respect that sort of dedication. But is Diaw big enough to lead a conspiracy theory? Of course not. That's why you go back to ASVEL, the team Victor played with before Metropolitans 92. You know who is the President of that team? 

TONY PARKER.

It all connects. It was always the Spurs. It was right under our nose and we didn't see it coming. Adam Silver may have had his David Stern moment. Stern was big on 2 things 1) growing the game internationally and 2) big market teams. You know how you grow the game internationally? Put Victor on the team an entire country was cheering for.
