The Paris Olympics is just a few days away and the Team France’s basketball roster is filled with some of the best talents, led by Victor Wembanyama and Rudy Gobert. The group phase of the games will begin on July 27th and the franchise will be competing in Group B alongside Brazil, Japan, and Germany.

Andrew Albicy, Bilal Coulibaly, Evan Fournier, Frank Ntilikina, and Matthew Strazel are among the 12 players on the roster for France. It is important to note that, the squad will first face Brazil on July 27th. Then, they will compete against Japan on July 30th. 

Finally, they will wrap up this phase of the competition by playing against Germany on August 2nd. If Team France makes it to the top teams, they will be again in action on August 6 for the quarterfinals. 

While they failed to demonstrate a strong showing in the pre-Olympics game against Serbia, it would be worth watching if they could fare decently during the group phase of the games.
