Did Victor Wembanyama say he can’t date American women?

On Twitter, a post has been going viral on Victor Wembanyama’s dating preference. The post on X said, “Wemby on American women: ‘I can’t date them. They’re too masculine. Paris women are soft and tender, American women remind me of NBA Young Boy.”


But the big question is whether the comments were said by Victor Wembanyama really or not. 

To clarify, it isn’t Wembanyama saying he won’t date American women as the post went viral on an NBA parody page. 

So, Wembanyama really didn’t say anything about dating anybody. The post on X has over 6 Million views which made it important to have this fact check.

With much fake news going around the world it is important to keep checking what are facts and what not and this post is fake.
