EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Federic Donnadieu, Victor Wembanyama's first coach, has been invited by the French phenom to attend the NBA Draft in Brooklyn on Thursday, but she spoke to DailyMail.com ahead of the meeting to discuss the phenom. Donnadieu was serving as the technical director at Nanterre in Paris in 2014, when a lanky 10-year-old boy signed up to play for the Under-11s. 'Well, my first memory was when I saw him, and of course, for a 10-year-old boy, he was obviously already tall, but what I noticed most was that he had a lot of technical capability,' Donnadieu said.
