The defeat against the Knicks continues to weigh on the French star, who would have liked a longer offseason to return to France and prepare for the upcoming season.

Victor Wembanyama has yet to get over the disappointment of losing the NBA Finals to the New York Knicks. According to Maxime Aubin, the French center is still hurt by the outcome and would rather not revisit the series just yet.

“I talked to his people, to his agents, and they said basically he does not want to talk about the Finals. From what I understand now, this is still something that hurts him, what happened in the Finals. He does not really want to talk about it yet,” Aubin reported.

Wembanyama would also have liked a longer offseason, giving him more time to return to France and prepare for the upcoming season.
