The United States beat France 83-81 to win the FIBA U-19 World Cup on Sunday.


Chet Holmgren had 10 points and 5 assists for the U.S., and was named the MVP of the tournament.


7-foot-2 prospect Victor Wembanyama lead France with 22 points, 8 rebounds, and 8 blocks. 


The 17-year-old Wembanyama, who recently signed with Tony Parker's Asvel in France, is not eligible for the NBA Draft until 2023.

Wembanyama should have won MVP but it doesn't quite matter. What matters is Wembanyama annihilated Chet who's two years older.
