If you combine all 5 Statistics. Wemby has the 9th best career average ever. He turned 20 this year and played under 30 minutes a game and he's 9th All Time already! Above Magic, Shaq, Olajuwon, Duncan, Robinson etc.

Being "the face of the NBA" isn't the same as being the best player. Jokic is the best player right now but he isn't the face of the NBA, he will never be, and he doesn't want to be.

Im firmly on the belief that bucher doesnt like ant. There is a case that Wemby could become the face someday, but hard to talk about him yet considering his team was worst in the west, and then he said the spurs actively were holding back to secure another lottery pick. like bro, they just werent good enough. We will definitely see what we got with Wemby in the next couple of years. If healthy, i think Wemby could become the greatest defender in league history with a really solid offensive game. But i wouldnt put him into the argument today for Face of the League discussion.

If you’re an nba fan, you have already been introduced to ant before these playoffs lol he’s a 2 time all star and has been in the playoffs 3 years in a row now.

Ant Man is the face of American Basketball. Joker, Doncic, SGA, Giannis and Wemby are the faces of world basketball.

First of all , 1 out 4 here in this panel we know the other 3 we don’t know , Rick Bucher the only one is recognizable. So Wemby is the new face of the league 🫳🏻🎤

... it's wemby...the only reason people are talking about Anthony Edwards is cause wemby is not in the playoffs...wemby is about to take over next season...wemby is a better over all player...better Nick name the alien 👽...imagine when wemby starts winning every game will be on nationally broadcast...

Victor W. in 2 years... For 20 years... 4 rings minimum

How quickly everyone forgets that Jokic and Doncic are the FACES of the NBA now. Ant is great, but I need to see him in a conference finals at least before I start putting him in that conversation.

Chicago was a big market because Jordan made it a big market Anthony Edwards if he is charismatic enough, and if he wins enough, he could make the Timberwolves a big market

Joy, TJ, and James don’t watch Spurs games because if they did they would had known the situation the Spurs are in, they rebuilding and it takes time to rebuild especially when you just drafted a generational talent like Wemby. They all dismissed Wemby being the potential face because the team wasn’t good or because he plays in a small market. They had no idea that Wemby had the most jersey sales behind LeBron, Steph, and I believe Luka as a ROOKIE! He also has his own shoe deal already and he made the Spurs be the 9th most in watched games. All that screams potential to become the face of the league, all he has to do is win now.

I love Antman, I felt Jimmy Butler could be the next face for a while. You can like him and hate him (as they said) but Jimmy is funny and firey. But I think if Ant goes far in the playoffs it could be him.

Its Ant Man easily yo im a Heat fan and this kid is the fn truth

Ant Man nor Brunson will be the Face of the League. We can pretty much be certain about that.

Anthony edwards is the face of the nba

7:41 to slicks point, you need a guy that carries. Ant carries other stars and has that charisma. Once he starts winning, the rest will come. Jokic doesn’t like All that attention so I have a hard time seeing him be that guy.

Nah even if he loses he'll be the face still....they can push it as Nuggets being his Bad Boys or Celtics

Nobody brought up my man SGA? Huh?

Spurs are not going from what 15 wins to 47 to get in the playoffs in the west?

it would be Jokic but he doesn’t want to be the face so there’s only 2 real answers, Luka or Wemby. There gonna be the best 2 players in the league for a decade

Its such a hypocritical discussion for Joy Taylor to say that they cant or dont decide who the next face of the league is. Who are you trying to sell on that lie. Shows like this, First Take, Undisputed, First Things First. You name the show they are all guilty of it. They all force the narrative and the topics they discuss every single show based entirely on analytics and minute by minute viewership numbers. These shows are too cowardly to take a step back to push another team or player that deserves it because they are afraid the numbers will take a dive. Maybe they wont be as strong as it is when talking about the Lakers or Cowboys, Dak or LeBron, KD and Steph. But while trying to hold onto that false sense of security in the analytics and numbers. Every single sports talk show and media personality fails the rest of the NBA astronomically. Because they are all behind the times and fail to realize that they are also an important part in marketing other teams and players. Its quite a disgrace to the NBA as a whole.

Quit with the media plays no role in this argument. Please, it was the media giving Lebron the “King” label in high school, criticizing him for the Decision and not going undefeated in the Finals. By all reports he’s a model person and still gets criticized mostly by the media. People follow the narrative like sheep. Tale as old as time.
