[Russo] Victor Wembanyama on his performance Sunday compared to Friday: “I think that, personally, I’m just, you know, it’s normal to get better every game. Two days ago was my first game. I had like so much shit going on with the draft, with the media and stuff, so it just makes sense.”

    Wemby is 2nd career summer game father

    He may be generational and all but at least there is a clear blueprint to slowing him down. Because he’s coming into the league so skinny, he has no business being in the paint. We will see other, heavier NBA centers shove/push him out of the paint as they try to turn him into a 7’5 shooting guard and hope he has an off night. That’s the blueprint for slowing him down as of right now.

  3. Victor especially understood between game 1 and game 2 how it was done in Summer League. You have to play for yourself as much as possible without trying to play team basketball lol

    This dude is so poised and mature it’s insane. Could not be more excited. Also thank god he went to the spurs lol

    The way people talk about these literal 19 and 20 year Olds is absolutely toxic as hell. This sub was absolutely unbearable yesterday

  6. From certifiable bust to HOF player in mere days, incredible.

  7. Bobaximus

    Lol, I know this sub always works up a froth for top rooks but the fevered pitch around Wemby is something.

  8. Background_Ad7011

    Hell yeah, I didn’t know my boy liked to cuss. That’s hella sickalicious

    “I told him he was bill russell 2.0, and he took that personally” – logo

  10. I think it was pretty obvious he had barely touched a basketball probably in a while. Tons of media obligations and stuff

  11. BlackMathNerd

    This man is not here for this American media frenzy and I don’t blame him at all

  12. ForsakenBen

    Could not be more excited. Also thank god he went to the spurs lol

    What did Rodman say about the non-basketball parts of the NBA, “I don’t get paid to play basketball, I’d have paid basketball for free. You get paid to deal with all the bullshit after” something like that

    Hey, let’s cut them some slack! They’re just trying to adult and shoot hoops at the same time 😅

    One side-effect of Wemby learning English via Instagram and TV is that he seems to curse a bit.

  16. thegeebeebee

    He’s literally saying that to r/nba dimwits calling him a bust two days ago.

    They should all be marked on this sub with a special mark, kinda like the Scarlet Letter, so that you can ignore anything they say going forward.
