France was left without a Anadolu Efes center before the big competition, when it comes to the upcoming Olympic Games.
Vincent Collet’s team will be the host, but unfortunately the headcoach will not be able to count on Vincent Poirier, the latest addition to Anadolu Efes.
The former Real Madrid center is injured and there is no possibility of him recovering before the start of the competition, which is a big blow for this team.
Poirier had a great season in Madrid, which is why it is not good that France will not be able to rely on him in the coming period.
As stated by the French Federation, he suffered an injury to his ankle and this will prevent him from participating in the Olympic Games. There will be no substitute for him.
France certainly has a very strong frontcourt. Mathias Lessort, Rudy Gobert and Victor Wembanyama form a formidable team, in which Poirier would surely find a place.
Last season, he recorded nine points and 5.3 rebounds in Real Madrid, so it is clear how much Anadolu Efes will gain by bringing him.
