Steeve Ho You Fat is winding down his basketball career, at the veteran age of 34. But that doesn’t stop NBA fans from dreaming to see him retire in the United States. The reason is simple: his last name.
A clip online went viral of an ESPN announcer covering an exhibition game today between French LNB Pro A team Metropolitans 92 and the NBA G League Ignite. The exhibition took place in Henderson, Nevada. Scouts from all over were in attendance to watch 18-year old #1 Draft pick prospect Victor Wembanyama in action.
Steeve Ho You Fat was born in Cayenne, the capital of South American country French Guiana. He’s a 6’6 power forward who has always played in France.
Sadly for NBA fans, Ho You Fat’s statistics are too discreet to be a star in France, let alone the NBA. He has a career average of 2.7 points, 1.3 rebounds, 1.0 assists, and 0.3 steals.
Ho You Fat was born in Cayenne, French Guiana and has been playing professional basketball across France since 2008. He has played for Cholet Basket, Olympique Antibes, ALM Evreux Basket, Chorale Roanne Basket, BC Orchie, Rouen Metropole Basket, ALM Evreux Basket and Metropolitans 92.
Ho You Fat is in his second full season with the Metropolitans. He averaged 3.2 points and 1.9 rebounds last season.
“Looks like they really want that jersey,” he wrote on his Instagram Stories.
Wembanyama is a 7-foot-2 center who is slotted to be the top draft pick next year. Along with his 37 points, he made seven three-pointers with five blocks and four rebounds.

I’m not even talking about sports, whatever. Any field, I’m always trying to be original, something original, something one of one, something that’s never been done before. And this is really how it worked in my life. I don’t know where it comes from. I think I was born with it. I’ve always been trying to be original. Unique, that’s the word.”
