The upcoming season has everyone watching the San Antonio Spurs closely, all thanks to French standout Victor Wembanyama. The No. 1 overall pick is the biggest prospect since LeBron James and is poised to make an immediate impact the moment he steps onto the court.
Standing at a towering 7-foot-4, Wembanyama combines height with guard-like skills. His ability to shoot from the perimeter and handle the ball is impressive, but there could be more to the Frenchman’s game that remains unseen.
Even though he’s primarily a center, Wembanyama seems confident in his ability to step up as a point guard for the upcoming season if needed. His confidence in taking on this role was shared in a recent training camp interview.
Per NBA:
“There really are no limitations. On a lot of set plays, on a lot of plays, it really depends on where you are. I can be the point guard just as I can be the wing. It doesn’t matter.”
