DPOY & ROTY definitely would be a kick starter for him towards a top 100 all time player.

Congratulations Wemby, people said that he would struggle, that it would be a reality check for him, well he is the reality check, in other words he is going to be a problem for a long time. He has put put not just the haters who said he was a bust after one summer leauge game, but the entire leauge on notice.

I could’ve easily won it if I had went into the league this year, but I let Victor shine and I stayed at my 9-5. Congrats to him tho.

Chet was slightly ahead in the first couple of months. Chet won the West Rookie of the Month for the first 2 months and then Wemby won the remaining 3.

@@alia2842too much injuries, he reminds me DRose, hope he won’t get hurt the same. He has to find the right guy to keep him free from health issues, Jordan Coleman has made him bulk up for sure, but I don’t think he has taken care of all much important things. Bulking up too much too fast is known to bring problems, that’s the main thing with the american system when developing athletes in the nba. Guillaume Alquier, Wemby’s personal trainer since years now in Mets92, Spurs, and this summer in the french team, has made it very clear: no stupid bulk up, just a well studied diet to get weight very lightly, and keeping on the things that made Wemby who he is now.

This kid is super bright alongside being extremely talented. You can tell by how he carries himself. He's also super self aware which is not common at such young age. He's going to be great, it's inevitable.

What a beautifully mature answer, not stating that America is "the best" or by any means perfect, and acknowledging the specific environment he is in. I've never seen an athlete, definitely not one so young, having such a mature perspective on their place in the world.

Luckily roty seems to be the only individual award not stuck with team success attached to it. They seem to change the rules for roty every year though lol

Des joueurs comme Victor, il n'y en a qu'un seul tous les 10 ans. Il est jeune, mais bien mûr dans sa tête. Il est humble et sait resté à sa place. Jamais prétentieux ni hautain. Il a l'esprit d'un grand champion. Il sera pendant très longtemps un grand champion. Mais attention, c'est pas fini, nous avons encore d'autres pépites en France et nous allons voir ça à la prochaine draft.

Heres the question id ask : Considering the differences between europe and the nba (systems, culture etc), what is it that he needs to improve on / learn that is completely different from europe ? - Im a canadian hockey fan who knows relatively nothing about the nba and ball in general, but Im interested in the things that one league demands for success that is unseen in the other league(s) (if that makes sense)

@Hyoma5

Ай бұрын

Fellow canadian here, never followed hockey much, but have watched NBA for many years. Victor Wembanyama is on the path of greatness, which few athletes have reached before. With a couple more years of experience under his belt, and once the spurs surround him with better players, they are going to be nearly unstoppable. He is a special player and a special human. Very rare. He's amazing.

English is his 2nd language and he is more articulate than most native speakers!

GYRTJ - Mystery OUT NOW‼️

Spurs Been Tanking since 2019 😏 People Wasn’t Aware We wasGoing After Wembanyama the Whole Time.

Winning the NBA Rookie of the Year Award puts Victor Wembanyama in the same category as both Michael Jordan and LeBron James. But if Victor Wembanyama also wins the NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award, this distinction will put him in a category with only Michael Jordan. The only award that LeBron James doesn’t have in his house is the NBA Hakeem Olajuwon Defensive Player of the Year Award because it’s been in Michael Jordan’s house since 1988. Michael Jordan is the GOAT forever. 🔥🔥🔥🔥👀👀👀👀👀👀🐐🐐🐐🐐
