Naturally, when you’re that hyped for so long, you’re going to acquire a lot of haters. Back in 2020, a random Instagram commenter responded to a post of Wemby’s highlights saying, “he not gone do none of that in the NBA.”
Well, now that he’s played a whole season of NBA games, it’s clear that he can do what he was doing in Europe at the toplevel. Even though the comment was from some random person four years ago, Wemby decided to reply by simply saying, “Why not?”
Whether online or on the court, nothing gets passed Victor Wembanyama easily 😅

Why not, indeed? It appears that Wemby isn’t above a bit of pettiness. I mean, he’s only 20 so it’s a surprise that it’s taken him this long to be a bit shady online. Fans better get used to him because he could dominate NBA news for a long time.
How Good is Wemby Going to Be?
Victor Wembanyama’s stats as a rookie were quite literally historic. He won the NBA’s Rookie of the Year award and was also named First-Team All-Defense. He’s only 20 and is already one of the best defensive players in the league. Once he can get a bit more consistent on offense, he’ll be making All-NBA teams.
Wemby flashes the handle, spins, and finishes with ease! 😲

The sky is literally the limit for how good Wemby can be. We’ve seen plenty of tall guys flop in the NBA but Wemby is different. He’s just so athletic and skilled. If he can add some weight to his frame, it’s hard to see how anybody can really stop him.
Players as big as him aren’t supposed to be able to pass, handle the ball and shoot but he can do it all. I personally wouldn’t want to be the one who is betting against him. He could be an all-timer when it’s all said and done.
