Asked to build a roster to capture the 2027 NBA title, the four-time champion selected his fellow Frenchman over established superstars like Nikola Jokic.

Tony Parker has identified Victor Wembanyama as the premier European player he would choose to construct a championship roster around.

Speaking on the BasketNews Film Session, the four-time NBA champion and current LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne head coach was posed a hypothetical challenge: select any European cornerstone to win the 2027 NBA Finals.

Despite the presence of elite talent currently at the top of the league, including Nikola Jokic, Parker designated Wembanyama as the ideal centerpiece to lead a franchise to the title.
