The comprehensive biography of French basketball phenomenon and NBA player, Victor Wembanyma, with dynamic photography, interviews and reports throughout.

June 22, 2023. The face of Victor Wembanyama stretches several dozen metres high on the billboards of Times Square, New York. It's a big day. The day when Victor Wembanyma becomes the first Frenchman to be selected as the No. 1 overall pick in the NBA draft, at only 19 years old.

Nicknamed "alien" for his incredible height (7ft 4in) by none other than LeBron James himself, this story retraces Wemby's ascent. Through immersive interviews, reports, stories, and analysis, complemented by stunning visuals from L' quipe's photography, long-standing basketball reporter Yann Ohnona showcases a detailed portrait of the player.

From his early life in Chesnay, Yvelines to his historic season with Metropolitans 92, with exclusive insight into his arrival into the NBA, this book that draws upon two years of original research, and unrivalled insights from the player's closest circle, including trainers, agents, teammates, family and friends - revealing one of the most fascinating sporting personalities that France has ever seen.
