Barça did not teach him this: the ugly Wembanyama gesture that everyone talks about
Victor Wembanyama He has been the negative protagonist of the NBA Finals that the New York Knicks have won and not only for having been on the losing side, but also for his unsportsmanlike attitude.
The San Antonio Spurs star left the court after the final Game 5 of the Finals without shaking hands with any Knicks player to congratulate them on the victory.
