In the post game interview when asked by Sir Charles Barkley how to say churro in French, Mr. Wembanyama replied with a dazed and confused expression. He stated that despite being in SA for months now, he doesn’t know what this long cinnamon and sugar donut is. How will this affect not just Wemby, but team chemistry going forward?
Does Charles think that churro is an English word?
I know what a churro is and even I got confused when Chuck said cheeros. It sounded like the cereal gone wrong.
Charles said “chooro”, which, as a French, I can understand Wemby’s confusion. First we always “churros”, plural, and Charles’ pronunciation made it quite unclear what he meant.
But I can assure you that Wemby knows what churros are. They are everywhere at county fairs and everyone has had them at least once in their life.
Wemby post game according to Mike Finger: “I know what churros are. I just forgot the word.”
