he is wired the right way. some guys like zion and ben simmons don't have that competitive drive so they get by on talent but don't improve. this guy is going to take leaps every offseason and if he stays healthy he can be a multiple time MVP and a first ballot hall of famer
@@maxw1357 Spurs are in rebuild mode....Pop is the GOAT and the only coach in the NBA that can develop Wemby properly. Pop isn't going no where he will retire when he's ready.
His shirt number tells you all you need to know. He's aiming for Nº1. It's not like he didn't put everyone on notice. Once he bulks up a little bit more and barring injuries, which he seems to have the prevention of figured out ok, he will be dominant like a Wilt Chamberlain. What he can do at his size is currently peerless. I mean, he has all the atributes the video showed... and can palm a basketball with just 2 fingers. He is a sort of next level athletic talent, like a Cristiano Ronaldo or a Lionel Messi. Let's see if he lives up to his potential over the next 15 years.
It's going to be scary for the rest of the NBA when the Spurs get some actually good players to join up with him. Right now, everyone on the Spurs, outside of Wemby, are bad NBA basketball players. I can't wait to see what he looks like in a few years when he has teammates that can actually help him out.
I don't agree with the level of his teammates : Devin Vassel is a promising, and still good, player, and Jeremy Sochan (who is even younger, 21 I think) plays very well, with a good margin of progression, as we can see since he plays at his natural position (3 - 4).
@@Emile97427 Vassell and Sochan have high potential, but as of right now, they are not good NBA players. Maybe they can be in the future, but they don't help the Spurs succeed as of this moment.
Yes, my Spurs are not doing too good this year. But that's the beauty of American sports is that you can be crap for a couple of years and then be contenders for a decade. I hope they get it right before free agency comes for Wemby.
He's definitely preparing excellently to stay healthy. Flexibility is strength and Wemby is super flexible and he's trying to get stronger while staying thin since added muscle mass puts more weight on your lower body.
Does this translate to wins though? Spurs last season were at .268 and with Wemby they're at .200. Mavericks are hardly serial winners and in Lukas rookie year he took them from .293 to .402
The spurs lost so many veterans that knew how to close out games and just frankly knew the basics of the game. Don’t forget that the spurs are the youngest team in the NBA.
I thought the narrator of this video was going to be creative and think of another great rookie from decades ago instead of Michael Jordan. ...Also, the narrator must be very young because he forgot the great Kareem Abdul Jabbar in his rookie comparisons to Wembanyama. Kareem averaged 28 pts, 14 renounds, 4 assists, and definitely 4 or more blocks per game as a rookie. ...And please ignore that EPM statistic. It is pure, hypothetical nonsense.
@@Chris-kk6cwto be fair, Wemby does have the worst win percentage for a rookie 1st-overall pick in their rookie year in NBA history, worse than LeBron’s rookie thus far, but I agree. The spurs haven’t used him very well.
You're the result of someone who watches no games yet speak on game as if they know. Embiid got him into foul trouble early and when he got back he had to be extremely cautious, mind you embiid scored more points on Zach Collins than he did on wemby, I believe the number was exactly 16 on wemby. But yea go with the he dropped all 70 pts on him route.
@@rfmmike6096 I'm a sixers fan I watched the whole game stop making excuses ...He scored on whoever guarded him wem y got in foul trouble because HE COULDN'T GUARD HIM
@@skinnykravitz You clearly didn't watch the game because you wouldn't claim he dropped "70 on him" when Zach Collins was at the end of it. Mind you everyone knows you can't touch Embiid during the regular season
tbh im most surprised at his availability. everyone was expecting him to be drowning in injuries, I knew he'd perform well if he could stay healthy
Fax He turned his ankle a couple times and played through it like it never happened.
cuz hes always on minute restrictions
@@nycchris4098which is crazy cuz he’s doin this in like 27 minutes while lebron janes his rookie season played 40
He trains on flexibility and core strength for injury prevention
@@nycchris4098I agree I think he doesn’t get injured because they don’t let him played while he’s tired

French athletes are no joke! Their infrastructures are the best in Europe in many sports...
Yall should react to some of his highlighs.
..."yall"...lol😂
@@areguapiri Yes im Texan
@@areguapiriwhat’s the point of your comment?
@@dropthehammer1360 probably just being xenophobic.
He got even better the second half of the season
Wemby’s in good hands. Pop and the Spurs will know how to shape him, if he was a Laker or something they’d burn him out and get him injured
They’re the third worst team in the league. Pop needs to go

His biggest hurdle will be staying healthy. He's got that slight frame and we know that big guys lack durability
I don't worry about him like that, he is a freak. He is not awkward at all at that height.
I was worried about that until I saw him sprain the fuck out his ankle and was able to keep playing.

Yeah cuz being skinny is bad or something? Look at the players in the 80’s, they all looked like they had aids
Giannis did too
In 28 minutes a game??!
He’s a rookie lol
Aiden is lookin buff, rock those guns out broh
Today hé have better stats lol more hé play more hé stats his better its unbeleavable

Kids the truth
And he is only gonna get better
How come England doesn't produce players that go to play in the NBA!! Contrary to France, that seems to produce from time to time nba talents.
MJ had a negative W-L record without Scottie
You guys pick the worst videos to watch lmao just watch a highlight reel bruh no one wants to listen to this kid talk about wemby

It’s a team game you fool
You clearly have no watched him at all and only looking at the record.
With his size in today's NBA he better be dominating. The NBA so soft and boring now that's why I stopped watching a couple years ago
