I haven’t been this excited to watch a rookie in 20 years. How unbelievable is this guy?
Same
I haven’t been this excited to watch a rookie in 40 years!
i haven't ever, wasn't conscious for lebron
Even more than Zion at his best?
Going to see him play the 26th, can’t wait!
It's crazy that all his teammates have to do is throw the ball as high as possible and he'll catch it no matter what 😂 this kid is special, I wish him the best for his career 🙏
please no injuries
5 games in and his highlight reel already crazyyy 🤧
This guy moves so effortlessly for someone who is 7'3 and he can shoot the ball 💯
KD looking at Victor thinking damn so this is how it feels like to play against me, but even taller 💀
He is listed officially at 7'3'' but he is more likely 7'5''. Because he is taller than guys that are really 7'3''. Also there is this picture from the U19 world cup where he stands next to Zach Edey (7'4'') and Chet Holmgren (7'1'') and he towers them both.
@@Magic.2598 ...💯 We now have a 2nd cheat code in the league....and this one can score twice as easily as the first 😱
@@philippculture489 I agree with you, he is solid 7'5. He looks same height with Mamadou Ndiaye who is 7'6, Rudy even looks way shorter for a 7'1. Google picture of Rudy Gobert, Victor Wembanyama and Mamadou Ndiaye
This kid went to a hostile territory and outdueled 2 Superstars in the clutch. Clock has ticked for teams to win their championships asap before Wemby reaches his peak.
He might be the best player in 5 years but that doesn't guarantee Championships.
@@1will2kill i doubt, there's no 'great' in the spurs organization that didnt win one.
@@1will2killNot in this era, and not on a great organization like the Spurs. This roster right now could be a playoffs team if everyone stay healthy (And sadly Vassell their 2nd best player is already injured), but the Spurs just need an elite point guard or playmaker to be a contender imo, the thing with Wembanyama’s archetype (Elite defender, especially rim protector, elite tough shot maker with clutch gene 🧬, elite off ball player with his ability to stretch the floor as a 4 or 5 with his 3pts shot, and to provide vertical spacing with his lob finishing ability), the thing with this archetype is that it’s super easy to build a team around him, just like KD, AD or Gobert (Except he is these 3 in 1 body), or Duncan, D.Robinson, Kareem or Hakeem back then, because with him and all these player except KD, you already have a Top 10 defense guaranteed, and they aren’t ball dominant so they can fit with any player, in fact i really believe if Wemby was on the same team with a guy like Luka, prime Harden, prime Cp3, prime Russ, Trae Young or Ja morant (Some of the most ball dominant players ever, but also some of the best offensive player ever, elite scorers and playmakers) it would be an automatic chip, and that’s because Wemby give you that Top 10 defense+ that elite scoring, off ball movements and gravity (And maybe playmaking too).
And i think it would be the same with any other superstar, imagine Wemby at the 4 instead of Aaron Gordon, Jokic would throw lobs and outlet passes all game long, and Denver would not only be better offensively, but also defensively 😂They would be unstoppable.
Imagine Wemby at the 5 next to Giannis and Dame or Jrue 😂Wemby is basically Brook Lopez with KD’s bag 😂 So they would also be better offensively and defensively.. They would be unstoppable.
Or imagine Wemby at the 5 for the Kings, Wemby is 10x the defender Sabonis is, 5x the scorer he is, and i think he can pass the ball just as well .. If Wemby was on the Kings last season, all these possessions were Sabonis is completely open in the midrange would be cash money 🤑 so same, their offense and defense would be better.
You have 2 type of players in this world, the floor raiser and the ceilling raiser, most players are both but they’re all more one than the other, for exemple Lebron is the ultimate floor raiser, meaning he can carry a team of bad/average players to the Finals or deep playoffs run because he is the most complete player ever, elite scorer, elite playmaker, elite defender, so he just needed great role players who can shoot 3’s and play defense to go far, and he is also a great ceilling raiser because he is a Top 2 player ever, but not elite, for exemple his fit with Wade wasn’t great because Wade was basically a smaller version of him, a ball dominant slasher with bad 3pts shooting, so the spacing was bad, that’s why they had to play Bosh at the 5 and Bron at the 4, and when Wade had the ball Lebron couldn’t impact the game as much because he was an average shooter, but he was an elite cutter and lob finisher, elite off ball defender and help defender and also a big body who could set screens that’s why he is still a good ceilling raiser, and players like Harden, Westbrook, Luka Doncic or Trae Young are similar to him, and like Harden said « Im not a system player, im the system »
And then you have the ceilling raiser, Steph Curry is the ultimate ceilling raiser imo, and unlike Bron, he can’t carry a team of average role players to deep playoffs run because he is a specialist, not a complete player like Lebron, he was a bad defender 90% of his career, and not an elite on ball playmaker, but because he is the best 3pts shooter and off ball player ever, because of his gravity, because he doesn’t need the ball to score and create chaos in his opponents defense, he can play with any type of player without them having to sacrifice a part of their game, for exemple Luka, Harden, Westbrook or Lebron himself could still dominate the ball and average 30 and 8 with Curry on their team, and with his spacing and gravity he would make them better, we saw it with KD.
But unlike Lebron who is also a good ceilling raiser, Curry isn’t a good floor raiser because without Draymond or any dominant defenders on his team he wouldn’t be able to win anything.
And MJ is like Lebron but except of being the ultimate floor raiser and good ceilling raiser, he was the ultimate ceilling raiser and good floor raiser.
And i think Wemby will be like MJ, the next ultimate ceilling raiser, and also a good (And maybe elite) floor raiser, because he can literally do everything, and he can play with any type of players or system .. Wemby is the only guy i’ve seen with real potential to become better than MJ and Bron, and the NBA is lucky OKC didn’t land him because they would already be a title favorite with him imo, look how good they are with Chet, and Chet is good but not close to Wemby imo, Wemby is already the best defender in the league according to the stats, and Top 3 most clutch player .. It’s ridiculous how good he is already.
@1will2kill true for teams that do not know how to win championships. Spurs + Great Big Men = Championships.
This kid is a gift from France to the NBA he is the new Frenchise.
The New French - ise
If he stays healthy he could legitimately be an all time great
I can't be the only one to notice that on spinmove he started from outside the paint and just reached over and under for the reverse... His euro and gather steps are going to be insane...
8 nba champion 8 nba final mvp 50,000 points let's go wembygoat
I like this boy cuz he is so humble so far!
I can’t wait for the “NBA players talk about Victor Wembenyama” videos in 15 years.
The San Antonio Spurs have found another Gem 💎 of an NBA All-star/Superstar Big Man. They've always had a specialty of development of the three, four and five posts. Small Forwards, Power Forwards, and Centers.
If he stays healthy, multiple rings guaranteed.
There is a guy called Jokic
Yep I agree
Not the first 2 seasons but after that forsure but could be a surprise playoff team
@@Sheldoncopperrrbro is like 10 years younger
@@Sheldoncopperrrwemby has a higher ceiling and he’s younger so i’d put my money on him
I believe he’s gonna be Rookie of the Year for sure, if he stays healthy. Victor Wembanyama scores 38 points in a single game. That’s impressive for a 7 foot 4 player. Wow!!!
@blakebrown84 Staying healthy is a given for making Rookie of the Year
Add DPOY to that
@@effector3659 Nah I think chet is a better defender
@@yonatan6379 LOL
@@effector3659 It's not a bad take at all, he's averaging more blocks, a few games ago he got 7 blocks
The thing I am legit stunned by, is that on top of the size, the finesse, the quickness, and the skill he has the clutch gene as well. It just seems like he couldn't possibly have superstar mentality at such a young age, but there it is. Game after game, he wants the ball in the 4th quarter whether his team is up, down, or tied. It's like we all just collectively dreamed this guy up.
Well said and nice shout out to the great Henry David Thoreau ; )
The San Antonio Texas Spurs drafted David Robinson, Tim Duncan, and now Victor Wembanyama. They are so very fortunate, blessed, and lucky to have this streak of scouting all-star talents.
I truly believe we are watching the future GOAT his rookie year. And the 1st In-Season Tournament???? This year gonna go crazy
If he stays healthy, obviously...
Victor Wembanyama is a very great basketball player, although the video quality is a bit blurry I can see the goatness of him!
Slim Duncan👽 a highlight machine
His vision is crazy. Passes all on point 👌 shot is butter
The amount of times his teammates recognized him being on the court and getting him the ball in certain spots starting from the Dalllas game to this last Phoenix game is like night and day......
Wemby trully a generational talent with clutch gene. What a kid.
Wemby is HIM
Love this man so much
He's like a mixture of Wilt, Kareem, Russell, Mj, Kobe, and KD.
Just, wow.
back again the the gloriouss day of spurs because of thiss guy
He was just crazy could be a champ in the next few years
Go spurs go !!!! We deserve this
Throw the ball up there and let the long guy catch & finish, the actual middle school basketball strat that works in NBA if u have Wemby in your team lol
😂
He's played five games and already has a 13-minute highlight reel.
And only play like 29minutes per game lol
Wemby just looks like he’s having so much fun
I too have not been so excited to watch a rookie in decades. Victor W. reminds me of a younger, taller Kevin Durant that moves like a Manu Ginoboli, who is 6ft 6 inches. Victor is just under 7'4 inches dribbling and moving like no other big man has ever. Only thing to hinder his god given talents is staying injury free. I stopped watching basketball when my personal favorite home town team of Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili retired years ago. Now Im glued to the games and game highlights.
Victor W...he's got victory in his name. He was born a winner!
In 5 years, if he stays healthy, he will be the best player in the league 💯
shiiiii if he stays healthy for majority of his career, he'd be the GREATEST EVER. No question.
After The Black Mamba
@@MayTheLORDGODblessus Im calling wemby right now. hell play 25 years, score 50,000 points and win 10 rings.
This Extraterrestrial will break records in no time. Rookie MVP! 👽🌏
Awesome Wemby !! Go go go WBY ! 💪
The suns bench reactions 😂
Rookie of the year
He is victorizing his game
If he stays healthy throughout the years to come he will easily become the greatest basketball player to ever play the game
One of the greats sure but slow down on the goat talk. Kid would need a lot of rings before he can even enter that debate.
@@Mike-hy8cs Are we watching the same highlights? This kid is 7”3 moving like a 3-guard AND can shoot the ball AND has defense. Gtfoh his only obstacle is longevity and health.
@famemontana You do realize when wilt played he was about as much of a freak of nature as this kid was in his time. You dont hear many people call him the goat though. The goat debate is never about who the most skilled is thats just part of it. How does his career play out? Does he get the chance to compete for 5 or more championships? Is he the dominant force on his team for his whole career or does he end up getting a co star that takes away his shine and his stats go down? Like you said health as well. How many chips does he win? What do his career stats look like? How many mvps? DPOYs? NBA 1st teams. A lot factors in. He has the gifts to be an all time great or the goat but that doesnt matter until he gets to that point. People need to slow down cause he just started his career. He is learning at the pro level. He is impressive sure but he isnt even putting up the best rookie numbers ever right now.
@@Mike-hy8cs GOAT debates are public speculation and opinion. Kobe is not even mentioned in that debate often. But yet Wilt and Kobe lived up to their expectations. On top of that 100 point game he has 2 rings and a 7x NBA scoring champion and is a HOF. I get your point but Wilt isn’t a good example. He was definitely one of the goats regardless of public opinion
@famemontana Right its all opinion based. There is a more common opinion amongst fans and that tends to be considered the goat. Majority of people will say jordan hands down. So in order to have people think wemby is the goat he has to either come close to or beat out a good amount of jordans accomplishments to be considered by many the goat.
For example some people (not me) think lebron is the goat now but lebron needed 10 finals appearances, 4 rings, 4 finals mvps and 4 regular season mvps and the all time scoring title to get to that point. And most people still have jordan over him. So lets slow down and see what wemby accomplishes. Remember he needs to be put in positions to succeed when it comes to team accolades like chips etc. Doesnt matter how talented and gifted he is.
NBA isn't hyping him, he really have the skills. Best of luck throughout your career Slemby
As a spurs fan, we are spoiled all im gonna say😹
He is crazy!!! Whatever how bad the passes were, he can eventually hit the shot
I swear this guy blocked a shot on one end and respawned on the other end for a lob. Generational.
I pray he stays fit, just to get more of these OMG moments
-raptors fan
Please stay healthy! Thats all Wemby need to worry about
I have a strong feeling that he'll win 7 rings
wemby gonna be the goat
VicGOAT "The Alien" weNBAnyama
I know... it's M.
Literally impossible to block the under the basket reverse layup. Eubank’s hand went as close as possible and hit the backboard 😂
This kid is fucking amazing!!!
Tre Jones a W teammate, always looking for his boy Wemby 🤜🏽🤛🏽
He's a true pg 💯
Unlike other unicorn he makes effort to play defense and challenge every shot. Thats unbelievable.
He looks good 🔥
Calling it now: this kid will be the GOAT of his generation.
Welcome to the Wem(NBA)! We are witnessing greatness in the making. GSG!
Wemby destroyed the Suns without Vassell (2Q injury) in just 4mins clutch time...
GoSpursGo
fooking 7'4 - 7'5 running in the court like a shooting guard.
My spurs are back baby🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉hell yeah🎉🎉🎉🎉
they say he and Bol Bol are the same player HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I love what Wemby brings, but tbh my favorite highlight with him was when Kevin Durant shot over him at the end of the first quarter in their first game against each other. For as iconic as both of those guys are, that was amazing
His height, skills, and versatility so unfair 😂
Wemby will run the league in a few years
Kid is not even at his peak already playing like this for his rookie season 😅 Good luck stopping this kid especially near the rim.
NEXT GOAT!! YALL KNOW THE TRUTH.
Okay. I'm not a hater. I love Wembanyama. I have been following him since the beginning of the 2022-23 NBA season. I have watched several of his games when he played for Met92. But the announcers need to calm down a bit. He's 7'4". Of course he can block and dunk really well.
this shi is insane. genuinely.
KD be like: "Ohhhh so this is what Iman Shumpert meant when he talked about guarding me."
He should get a workout so that he can go to the paint strong! Still, Wemby is very talented 💯
GOAT material
ROTY on his first year DPOY on his second year and MVP on his 3rd year mark my words.
True monster
0:51 Bro they did him dirty adding this as a highlight
Crazy guy 🔥❤️
HE is good, but yall are jumping the gun with the goat and multiple rings talk. 7' 4" is hard to maintain... I hope he stays healthy, but thats a lot of length to maintain... Lets see where he is towards mid season... fingers crossed, he is fun to watch for sure
Hightlight machine
MVP
Its hilarious how in almost every game he ends up getting a block on like the first play or two of the game
"Air France" Wembanyama
Flight # AF Wemby 😊
he is a f**king alien bro
Bang smashing on boys already
bros averaging 2 minutes and 9.4 seconds of highlights per game as a rookie damn.
He's the 2nd coming of Tim Duncan.
Tim Duncan ? Tim Duncan couldn’t do all this
Wemby is HOFer potentially
Papovich is gonna turn this kid into a super soldier
popovich waits to see the talents before reacting!! but most people realize that Victor must be left alone! either in 4, or in 3 or in Pivot, everything does not depend only on the opponent, but on the momentum and whether his freshness allows him!!
It's like he's playing on the Playschool basketball rim
THE BIGGEST HIGHLIGHT play occurs just after 10:50 when Wemby, the string bean, knocks the stockier Grayson Allen to the floor despite Allen initiating the contact! This could be a martial arts skill where Allen's force is turned against himself because under the normal laws of physics Allen's blow should have knocked the skinny bean pole Wemby backwards. The opposite happened! I've been on the receiving end of that kind of force that Wemby unleashed. I was literally pushed back while the other person was standing on one foot without leaning forward.
Victor Wembanyama is next David Robinson
6:06 🤣🤣🤣 KD look like, "Ohhhh.......that's what trying to guard that swing move from a 7 footer feels like..." KD's made so many defenders feel helpless with that move; it's strange to see someone put that helpless look on HIS face for a change 😵😵😵

Wemby gonna be the next lebron for sure
Lebum
Lebum OVERRATED. Wemby is more skilled NOW than Lebron has EVER been.
lebron is great athlete, a faster karl malone, or a bigger Westbrook, but this "we've never seen Lebron James before" BS is LAUGHABLE.
Westbrook is a smaller version of Lebron. They play the exact same way, Bron even has a worse TO% than Westbrook lol.
No wonder Lebron has 3 NON-BUBBLE RINGS and these young clowns d-ride him.
Wemby will blow past Lebron without all the steroids and pro-Lebron Klutch Sports propaganda.
