Outlook: Victor Wembanyama is probably the most hyped teenager since LeBron James… The secret about him was out way before he became eligible for the 2023 NBA Draft and blew up for 37 points including 7 three pointers against G-League Ignite…

Jul 6, 2022 · On offense Wembanyama has a handle and can play more like a wing. Porzingis is more like a Stretch 4 on a good day, an awkward 5 on a bad day. On defense Wembanyama is an actual really good defender. Porzingis is a shitty one who just has the size to naturally block the easy shots. From a tools perspective, Wembanyama is more athletic than Kristaps and has a 7'9 wingspan. Kristaps only 7'6 ...

Dec 23, 2024 · Victor Wembanyama has never wanted to put limitations on how he can play and the San Antonio Spurs are abiding by his vision in Year 2 of his NBA career. "That everyday fight you talk about is something I've been through, of course, growing up a lot," Wembanyama said.

If anything, Wembanyama appears set to chart a course entirely his own. On a scale from 1-10, Wembanyama pre-NBA career rates at a 10. Ideal NBA Ecosystem I’m not an NBA general manager, but it seems to me that all 30 teams could use a player with the defensive upside of Hakeem Olajuwon and the offensive upside of Kevin Durant.

I think as someone who was pretty well versed in his strengths and weaknesses coming into the year. He's actually had a better rookie year than I imagined.
