In basketball, it's one of the worst possible humiliations. Sekou Doumbouya, the 19-year-old Frenchman who is playing his first NBA season under the colors of the Detroit Pistons, had his first feat in the prestigious North American league on the night of Tuesday to Wednesday. The winger ridiculed his opposite Tristan Thompson during the meeting between his franchise and Cleveland.
Thrown into the racket of the former LeBron James team, Doumbouya flew over the American in the first quarter of the game to snap a magnificent dunk and send his opponent to the mat. And stared at him in stride.

Rudy Gobert posted a "bulging eyes" emoji while Nicolas Batum launched an ironic "Oh Sekou Doumbouya, c'est pas bien" on Twitter.
The interested party, he relayed the sequence on this social network, simply accompanied by an emoji of a character who raises his arms innocently.

This is just the start of it all. All I did before was to get to where I am now. And have the privilege of ridiculing an NBA champion player in 2016.
