Victor Wembanyama, the towering 7-foo-3 NBA sensation, recently found himself in a humorous predicament while shopping for a new sports car. The San Antonio Spurs star discovered that his extraordinary height posed a unique challenge when it came to fitting into a sleek, two-seat convertible.
A video that quickly went viral on social media captured Wembanyama attempting to squeeze into a Nissan Z roadster at a local dealership. Despite his best efforts, it became clear that the car simply wasn’t designed with someone of his stature in mind. With his knees nearly reaching the dashboard, Wembanyama’s struggle was pretty entertaining for fans… but likely not for him.

The incident sparked a wave of lighthearted reactions online, with fans joking that Wembanyama might need a custom-made vehicle, much like NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal, who famously had cars modified to accommodate his 7-foot-1 frame. Others quipped that Wembanyama might be better off shopping for a limousine or even a bus to ensure a comfortable fit.
Wembanyama, who is currently sidelined for the remainder of the NBA season due to a medical condition, has been making the most of his time off the court. While his car-shopping adventure may not have gone as planned, it provided fans with a glimpse of the challenges that come with being one of the tallest athletes in the world.
