Every once in a while, a prospect comes around in the basketball world that makes you sit up and take notice. One such individual may have now popped up in Spain in the form of Mahamadou Landoure.

Real Madrid's 13-year-old center from Mali is already 6'9 and he recently featured for them in the Endesa Mini Cup, a U-14 tournament. In the past, the likes of Luka Doncic have shone on this stage, and on Sunday, it was Landoure's turn to put on a show in the final.

He finished with 56 points, 33 rebounds, and 5 blocks in 34 minutes, as Madrid beat their rivals Barcelona 84-74. The youngster clearly has a lot of talent and his footwork for someone that size is quite impressive.

He claimed the MVP award for the tournament and while it is quite impressive what he has accomplished so far, he still has some ways to go before it can be said for sure that he is a generational prospect. One man who has firmly established himself as that is Victor Wembanyama and Landoure will be hoping to progress the way the Frenchman has.

LeBron James Had Some Advice For Victor Wembanyama

Wembanyama is the most hyped-up prospect since LeBron James back in the day and provided he stays healthy, he will completely transform the fortunes of whichever NBA franchise he goes to. His physique was the biggest concern that many had regarding him, but the Frenchman clearly has been working on his body and looked shredded in pictures earlier this year.

With Wembanyama somewhat following in his footsteps, James had some advice for him. He told the Frenchman to stay true to the game and to work his butt off, but at the same time, also made it clear that he needs to have some fun. Finding that balance is key and Wembanyama seems like the type who will find it.
