« He is just tall » they said
Wembanyama too selfish
7'3 dude shooting threes and mfs sayin nothin wrong with da game
“Historic”😂😂😂 The NBA sucks. All 3 pointers and dunks and you could die from old age before anyone is called for traveling. But at least it’s not the wnba.
what the knicks bench say to him xDDD
And so it begins
He’s gonna be the greatest fantasy player ever
that travel ny sochan. at 0:00 man
Face of the league… he will save the nba and be the greatest of all time!
alien is the correct name
meat riding is crazy
He thin like a stick, but he plays good
I hope he dumps this garbage team and goes to golden state afterwords
Next Year's MVP if not 🚫 Sooner 🤔
Didnt get the win though… Really hoping for playoffs but carrying this teams hard
2:54 pure Bronson wasn't happy. He did all the right moves but damn those arms long
Get him some help! Only Sochan and Chris Paul are being consistent overall, and Castle on defense. The coaching was shit this game. They needed Sochan on Bridges. They needed Jones and Vassel and Barnes with less minutes and Castle and Bassey with their minutes. Spurs need to get Wemby a co-star. The time is now. This man is becoming very upset when Spurs have lost 5+ close games.
2nd season and putting such numbers Insane
green hair player goes for a walk in the first clip 😭
3:17 facts
All Star Dpoy Mip All NBA 🔥🔥
1:20 is crazy
how do u even stop his 3pointer?
20 years ago if a player scored +40 points was something extraordinary. Nowadays nobody cares. NBA is dying. Crowd does not scream "DE-FENSE" anymore.
lol every game is historic for him wtf HAHAHAHAHAHA
San Antonio should be really bad to loose with this alien in the squad
Spurs are ruining talents after talents.
The problem is that if he gains weight, he'll lose mobility and speed, and also increase his risk of injuries. Going to the rim more often also means expending a lot of energy, which will impact his offense and decision-making. He needs to find a good balance. By the fourth quarter, he seemed tired.
this player must get at least 2 rings
