On December 19, during the game between Panathinaikos and Baskonia at OAKA, he suffered a fibula fracture but made his way to the locker room on his own, hopping on one foot!
The next day, he underwent surgery at the “Ygeia” hospital, and everything went well. The French center of Panathinaikos, known for his powerful dunks and his ability to score big points, will be out of action for 4 months.
The president of the Panathinaikos Basketball Club, Dimitris Giannakopoulos, met with him, agreed on the terms, and gave him more than 8 million euros to extend his contract until 2028!
The French silver medalist from the 2024 Olympics, originally from Martinique, had a tough childhood, and to get here, he worked very, very hard.
He continues to do so. Even though his leg is in a cast, and he can barely walk, he went to OAKA, sat in a chair, dribbled, and took shots!
And all of this with his left leg in a cast. One thing is certain: he will return before the 4 months are up to help the team secure the 8th Euroleague title!
