French basketball player, Victor Wembanyama, is Louis Vuitton’s latest ambassador draft pick. The young budding athlete, affectionately known by fans as “Wemby”, is gaining traction in the international sports scene. Wembanyama began his career playing basketball in his hometown of Nanterre, France before rising through the regional ranks and into international stardom. 

Having played his first match for the French National Team in 2022, Wemby swept the board in his first season, winning titles like MVP, Best Young Player Of The Year, Leading Scorer and Leading Shot Blocker.
