Victor Wembanyama's Olympic journey has officially begun.

The 7-foot-4 French basketball sensation made his debut against Brazil's Bruno Caboclo on Saturday, drawing significant attention at Pierre Mauroy Stadium in Lille. Fans, eager to see the 20-year-old star, lined up well before the game.

The atmosphere was electric, especially for a fan base that missed seeing Wembanyama at the opening ceremony in Paris. Opting to rest in Lille for their opener against Brazil, Wembanyama's appearance on the court was met with thunderous cheers and a flurry of phone cameras.
