I’m a new fan and I’ve been binge watching Wemby’s interviews. He speaks incredibly well and his answers are always well thought out. I’m also amazed at how poised and humble he is, plus you can clearly see his intelligence and competitive spirit. He’s definitely someone who’s incredibly easy to root for and is a great choice to be the face of the league.
Vic- as a Spurs Fan we love you. You represent the Spurs and yourself so unbelievably well.
I hope he has fun and stays healthy

Q: Hello Victor, what changes for you to come here as an All-Star player, and as a starter compared to last year. Do you have more responsibility ?
A: Nah, not more responsability. Someone asked me this earlier, and tbh when I see steph curry saying "it's impossible to feel like a vet", I feel the same. I still consider myself to be a rookie (not as in first year player, but rather as a new player in the league), but I'm ready to play and show the example.

Q: Victor, hello. In a way, the All-Star week end is also the "birthday" of when you got diagnosed with deep vein trombosis last year. A lot of stuff happened since then, when you look back a the past year, what do you think about this tough moment in your life ?
A: It was a great year for me, because it was a year of growth on a personal standpoint. Obviously many challenges, but I'm happy to be here today. I'm happy to be who I am right now, I'm happy of the way I changed. So yeah, looking back, I wouldn't change anything (about the past year). There were some challenges, but it was worth it.
So bright !
Great media sesh with Wemby today. Putting aside the fact he’s other worldly tall and talented, dude is very smart and gives some well thought out and layered answers. Makes me smile knowing he’s only just turned 22 and glad to be along on this ride to see him grow in the league.
Horrible questions
Let's Go Wemby !! 🫡🙏 Spurs for life in the 210 town !! GSG!
