This kid is unfair but nice to see
Congrats
Victor "block by" Wembanyama
Wemby has fewer blocks simply because barely anyone dares to challenge him at the rim.
👽
Victor Wembanyama will one day win an MVP award for sure
Wemby + NBA = NBA JAM: SPACE EDITION
NBA hates the Wizards. Sarr averages same number of blocks in the east
👽🇫🇷
My 🐐 👽 👑
What is akia
So he has missed countless games, is on a minutes restriction, teams don’t even bother attacking him in the paint, and he still leads in blocks😭
The more he blocks, the less he got blocks
Defensive Player of the Millennium.
Wemby is the closest thing we’ve seen to a modern Demi-god. Why God had to flood earth…because wtf 😂. Bra I watched his 2026 highlights, half a season…I haven’t felt this way since bron first came in the league.
0:02 That's what you get for wearing cream jerseys.
Lovely job at the rim
🛡️👽🛡️
GSG!
1:35 Wemby making Durant look small and incompetent. Mind blowing.
DPOYYYY
That block on Durant was all Castle's doing.
Nice editing. Played the same clip twice 😂
No doubt about it…well deserved….probably DPOY too
The timing is flawless and count how much he swat the ball but keep it in play
HE is HIM
I love blocks way more than dunks
Possibly the most clear DPOY ever
😊😊😊 GSG!!!
He's damn near 8ft! 😂😂😂
Needs a new stat : deterred attempts in the paint. His presence does much more than blocking shots
It’s not fair the guy is 1000ft tall. There should be a height cap lol
And the one game I bet in that month he had 0…
DPOY
