We are about to witness basketball history in the making, and I couldn’t be more excited! Victor Wembanyama, the towering No. 1 overall pick, is set to make his debut for the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA 2K24 Summer League. Hold on to your seats, folks!
Now, I don’t know about you, but I’ve never seen a dude this tall handle the basketball like a guard. Wembanyama is 7 foot 3 and a half, which makes him taller than most door frames and probably even some small buildings. I’m curious to see what position he’ll actually play. Maybe he’ll invent a new one!
There’s been a lot of hype surrounding Wembanyama, with people comparing him to the likes of Kristaps Porzingis, Kevin Durant, and Kevin Garnett. That’s some serious company right there. Personally, I’m not sure if he’ll reach LeBron James, Michael Jordan, or Tim Duncan levels of greatness, but hey, anything is possible.
As the Summer League approaches, I’m anxiously waiting to see if Wembanyama lives up to the expectations. Will he dominate the court like a seasoned veteran or stumble like a newborn giraffe? Only time will tell. Who knows, he might even snag the coveted Rookie of the Year award. I mean, stranger things have happened, right?
