BD: I don’t know [laughs], 2028 is still far away, we’re in 2025, and a lot can happen in three years. Obviously, we’ll try to get better and try to get the National Team improving year after year. And, yeah, it’s a new generation, new young guys… We’re gonna try to get ready and play the next competition in the next few years, and try to grow and be as good as possible. So yeah, maybe one day win a title.

It’s been a long time, 20 years since Argentina won the gold medal in the 2004 Olympics in Greece. Can Victor Wembanyama lead the team to a gold medal? It could be one of the proudest moments in French sports history.

BD: He will be a big piece, but it’s not about one guy. You need different pieces, and different players doing different things on the court to go in there and win. We’ll see what happens.

French basketball legend Boris Diaw recently sat down for an exclusive interview where he discussed a wide range of topics, including up-and-coming prospect Victor Wembanyama, his memories of playing against Kobe Bryant, and the possibility of winning a championship at the age of 42.

When asked about Wembanyama, the 7-foot-2 teenage phenom who has been drawing comparisons to Rudy Gobert and Kristaps Porzingis, Diaw had nothing but praise for the young talent. “Victor is an incredibly gifted player with a bright future ahead of him,” Diaw said. “His combination of size, skill, and basketball IQ is truly remarkable, and he has the potential to be a game-changer at the next level.”

Diaw also reflected on his time facing off against Kobe Bryant during his career, calling the late Lakers legend one of the toughest competitors he ever played against. “Kobe was a true warrior on the court, and his work ethic and dedication to the game were unmatched,” Diaw said. “It was always a challenge going up against him, but it was also a privilege to share the court with a player of his caliber.”

As for the possibility of winning a championship at the age of 42, Diaw remained optimistic. “I believe that age is just a number, and as long as you take care of your body and stay committed to the game, anything is possible,” he said. “I would love to add another championship to my resume, and I’m willing to put in the work to make that happen.”

Overall, Boris Diaw’s insights on Wembanyama, Bryant, and his own future in the game provide a fascinating look into the mind of a basketball legend who continues to inspire fans around the world.
