Vincent Collet has officially stepped down as the head coach of the French men's basketball team after 15 years, during which he led the team to significant achievements, including two Olympic silver medals and eight international medals in total. Following his departure, he has been appointed as a special advisor to the French Basketball Federation (FFBB) for the upcoming Olympic cycles in Los Angeles 2028 and Brisbane 2032. Collet expressed pride in his new role, aimed at offering expertise in player and coach training, while also hinting at a future coaching position. His record includes 179 wins in 253 matches, making him the most successful coach in the history of the French national team. Despite the disappointing results at the recent Olympics, where France finished as runners-up to the U.S. for the second consecutive time, Collet remains optimistic about the team's future, emphasizing the need for reconstruction. His potential return to coaching in the NBA or EuroLeague remains a possibility, depending on offers received.
