That’s all they had to do was give him the dam ball! Like why is that so hard ?
Spurs should give me a call, man. I'd average 10+ assists, and Wemby would average 30 points 🤷
It's absolutely weird to see the Spurs pass the ball to Wemby. Majority of his points came from an assist.
Way too soon. But if he plays 18 seasons with no significant injuries, he'd be in the GOAT conversation
Finally
In 24 minutes
He may become a Legend but won't change the fact that his style looks so laboured and ugly 😢😢 He will never be like MJ or Kobe.
In 24 minutes….
And all that in 24 minutes played ^^
He had the ability to make the game look so effortless
Definitely getting a quadruple double by the end of the season
TRE JONES AND WEMBY PLAY LIKE THEY SHARE THESAME BRAIN
i could see him getting big like giannis would be terrifying could affect his shooting tho
the worst in the conference beat the 2nd worst in the conference without their starters, nice.
First thing he does after the final whistle is run up to his siblings for an embrace. What a humble young man.
Spurs coach made a the players to look for Wemby today
According to ESPN, anything that Wemby does is historic and unprecedented and when Chet does the same thing or better, ESPN is quiet as a church mouse.
Single digit rebounds again, how????????
As he will be able to get at shorter distance of the rim with partners passing him the ball…then he'will have his'stat taking off… And it will be confidence for other things. Spurs still continue'to'be'a very "fragile" team… +26 to – 9 between middle of the 2nd and and the 3rd…at this period they stopped pass the ball. Hopefully they did not continue to'do'tjis and that helped them to win the game. What is strange tbh is that they still do not understand that until now…
When his teammates put their jealousy and ego aside and play with Wemby everything goes well
Fantastic 💯
Chet gonna win rookie of the year
Unless this guy puts on some muscle, he'll be hurt ,wont be playing long.
ALL STAR ⭐️
WEMBY THE NEXT BIG HIT IN THE NBA, COULD BE SHAQ STATUS
You gave your best player by far the ball and you won. Not rocket science coaching. Just keep giving him the ball and your chances of winning increase drastically.
I think its well established now that victor wembenyama is a walking cheat code…
not impressive
His teammates passing to him yet?
Funny how this was Spurs most fluid game as soon as they engaged Wemb more in the plays 😂😂 Spurs would have salvaged themselves from all these defeats if they actually did the obvious. They still need a true PG but at least they'll be able to save face contrarily to the Pistons
This is what happens when you actually play through your star rookie
This generations KD
Also Porzingis was unicorn and was more powerful. You cant know what a guy can be. For the moment I see not much rebounds from Wemby, he could grab 20 per game. He can shoot but his height and moves are made for dominating the paint and midrange
man has the potential to be in top 3 center all time
