Honestly looks solid considering it’s very difficult to fill out a big frame. I even struggle to fill out my frame at 6’0. Although he needs a little more weight so he doesn’t get pushed around easily, I’m totally fine with him staying relatively “skinny”.

His arms are def much bigger than when he was in France. I think he needs more mass on his lower half though

Camera angles and low-fat content really be tricking people. A lot of modern nba players that look skinny on the court look distractingly yolked in real life.

Also looks like he’s packed on some pounds as the season has gone on.

I high fived him at the kings game and dude is swole af in person.

imagine him doing the giannis transformation over the years

It’s the shoulders. If he gets Jayson Tatum shoulders people are gonna talk about how bigger he’s gotten.

He’s definitely skinny, i also suffer from low body fat tall man syndrome so i understand the feeling but i hope the offseason allows him to put on pounds. So excited to see what he can be like with more strength and not having to fade away and be off balance all the time. Hes literally just a rookie

I miss this shit!

Something to keep in mind is that Wemby lifts after every game. He’s got a post-workout pump during these interviews.
That said, he really has been gaining lean muscle mass all year. It’s coming together but it’s gonna take some time.

People miss the difference between skinny (Poku, Chet) and lean

He still LOOKS skinny, but you can tell that he definitely got jacked, compared to before the season started.

ngl, he looks bigger a little physically as time goes by, hope he gets giannis fitness training. lol

Part of why he looks as ripped as he does is cause he’s so skinny

I dated a girl in about 2009-10 ish who was a nursing student at Alabama. I went to see her one weekend and we decided to go bowling with some friends. Two lanes to our left, Julio jones, mark ingram, and several of their friends were bowling (some of their friends were in the lane between us). Julio jones looks skinny as hell on tv. I was standing 10 feet from the guy, and as a sophomore/junior in college, I swear to god his arms were as big as my head. That’s how I learned that “how they look on tv” is a damn lie haha. Whatever size you think a professional athlete is, triple it.
He’s svelte. I wouldn’t pick him to win an arm-wrestling match against Jokić, but there’s a reason why NBA players fall over when he chest-bumps them at full speed.

He doesn’t need more muscles if it means more injuries. He has peoples that knows much more om the matter than reddit

Not skinny, *thin framed*
Even if he is skinny the dude is 7’5

That’s a skinny arm bro
He’s put on 20-30lbs at a minimum since the draft
