Jazz and Spurs race for 0-82 will be legendary
Lmao 😭😭😭😭😭
I'm taking spurs in that case lol
This ain’t the nfl, he’ll go to a team way too good for him because they got a lucky draw in the lottery. Watch him be a Laker to make the league miserable
@@prestigev6131 Ok but you’re forgetting that if the lakers get the pick, they have to swap it with the Pelicans because of the AD trade a few years ago…
Jazz will waste his talents. Greg pop will turn this kid into a top 10 all time talent.
His english is way better than I expected
Same thing I thought
Lot of US and East European players in the French League, so everybody speaks english, even the coaches at timeouts, that must be why.
@@Cant111 Still it's not easy to pick up such a great accent. I'm French and I speak fluently but my accent sucks
@@ulixo1132 i actually love when french accent, like ceb (dota2 player) and arsene wenger 😍
I learned english best by watching NBA games, and TV Shows.
Man, a lot of the teams might reevaluate their goals this season.
Season Tank Slogan:
Why win when we can wait for Wembanyama?
@@auburnmann3630 WINbanyama😄
Pops was starting San Antonio tank about two years ago... They been trading away and not resigning their good player every chance they can... Anyone that can jeopardize the tank is out...
@@KDotO79 might wanna trade Keldon Johnson and Poeltl while you're at it.
@@SAINTxSZN I'm a raptor fan...I'm just calling it wat it is... Plus those 2 aint good enough to effect the overall tank so they will probably be spared for the time being.
It's pop he hasn't had a generational player in a while now so of course he is all in on this kid and the tank... Funny enough he has said this much in interviews saying and I am paraphrasing here "don't expect much wins this season". So yeah if those guys do effect the tank they will be traded too.. spurs are all in... To lose.
Utah about to tank like we’ve never seen before 😂
No 🧢😂
Between the Spurs, Jazz, and OKC the tank war is about to be epic
@@freyjaskeeper3434 I think Okc will tank for scoot so their young core can be giddy, scoot and Chet.
@@san8890 okc will get the 1st pick then he will be traded or leave in free agency and then win mvp.
Can't wait til Jazz make the play-in
well spoken, beast in the making!
The brick for vic starts in 15 dayys
Loool
Well spoken and articulated kid, he is totally focus and he kwons what he wants. he is in the center of the NBA storm..
@Lamar Stewart Victor is not gangsta.
STOP.
After his rookie contract, I don't think the bank will have enough money for his extension.
After his rookie contract that team is going to be the first team to try to sign him for 12 years $1 billion or something 😂
50M all teams have it. NBA is printing paper!
NBA has strict max salaries.
Love this kids mind set. He will dominate in the NBA.
You can tell by his frame he can take on more weight..good for him
He's a problem, he has that hitman mentality. His team was down and he came through and delivered when it was needed the most. Remember he could be in high school right now
Maybe if he got held back a year. Dude is almost 19
@@tgrimshaw 18 and a half you could definitely still be a senior in hs
@@Weeby_historian maybe if you reclassified but 18 and a half is a stretch, you should he graduating at 17 turning 18 in the fall or winter
@@Alenjxy That’s normal kids. Basketball athletes stay graduating at 19.
Normally you should be 18 by graduation in high school, I’m younger than majority of my graduating class so I was 17 when I graduated
Tanking game between OKC , SPURS, Houston, Magic and Jazz gonna be crazy.
Edit :- Pacers as well
Magic and Houston better not be tanking at this point lol its time to be competitive. Not playoff teams but at lest win like 30 games
@@colewrld901 really 0 point for them to be competitive with these two on the bosrd
@@Bandicoot19 deadass like be competitive next year lol
Anybody in the lottery can get him. The Pelicans where 7th and Grizzlies 8th in the lottery in 2019. And ended up with the top picks to get Zion and Morant 😂
@@Bandicoot19 I personally think it's a such thing as to much talent. Like I don't want Victor or scoot on teams where there aren't enough touches to go around. Magic and rockets are stacked with young talent
Gobert, Embid and this kid front lining for France is gonna be scary!
Embid is Cameroonian
@@iramroj9788 he’s got French citizenship as well
@@jasongroves6224 I know he got his US citizenship like a week or 2 ago but he also got his French one?
@@MegaZack61 yeah I’m pretty sure he got French citizenship about 3 months ago
Embid is American now.lol.this last week officially.
Love the fact that the young man is articulate and can express himself.
Qu'est ce qu'il est impressionnant , ce garçon. Le niveau d'anglais qu'il a , a 18 ans, la structure du discours, la mentalité, la capacité introspective mais aussi la confiance tranquille en lui. En plus de tout le reste... très impressionnant, vraiment. Je lui spuhaitentput le succès dumonde.
I was watching this game at work was impressed by victor and scoot’s game
Hot take here
😂😂😂😂😂 next level analysis
@@titans12321 how so ?
@@johnkingjunior 😂😂
Tanking is going to be crazy this season
AMAZING PLAYING TO WATCH
What a great guy
His English is really good
Bro is so tuff
I cant wait for the draft
It was a crazy game!
Your insane bro!🔥
Young Legend🙌You have all the tools to be special in this league just stay focused and sharpen your game at all times. We are about to witness something special with you
Come to Dallas with Luka
im one of ur biggest fans already man you’re amazing !
@@Gio.g2g Yeah cos that's how it works
If I am an NBA team we are not practicing at all this season. Need this guy in a jersey!
First time in league history, all teams will be competitive doesnt matter if to be #1 or #15
Tim duncan post fundamentals, tony parker guard skills and david robinson defense... All in one. Popovich licking his lips.
@Real One watch his euroligue games. He is a pro in France since he is 15 years. Did you guys not learn your lessons with luka doncic. Victor is a top 3 euroligue player already like luka. I watch more euroligue than nba because i am not american. More talent in this kid that tony parker. and rudy gobert. In France there is no debate.
@Real One i said he has.
Love how all the English speaking commenters below (mainly Americans I am sure) just take his English speaking ability for granted. Like that should be impressive in itself. It is amazing how little folks know how much they don't know. Just think about this guy vs all the American teenagers you know graduating from high school soon. Mature in only their abilities to get driving license early in life, mature in drinking early, mature in all the things that take minimal effort in life. Just saying, notice more than the athletic abilities here. Wow.
Language learning is easier for Europeans
Man this NBA tank season is going to be something !!
Don't expect this kid to play summer league after he's drafted next summer. We already know he's good, the team that drafts him will protect his long term health with load management to an extreme.
Whoever gets him is blessed
You mean a team or a girl lol ?
He's the 1st pick of 1st picks...37 at 18... 🐐
My only worry for guys his height and can move like he does is his will he be able to be healthy. Bol Bol and Chet are recent guys that come to mind.
I think he gone one of the greats
Kid just secured his 1 pick spot. Now proved himself with future NBA players currently with ignite
So humble and mature. The best talent since Yao Mong and LBJ.
Guy said yao Ming 💀
@@bfresh6025 yu must be like 16 lol
@@ninoescxbar7424 guy said “best talent”. We gonna put yao before Shaq, tim, Dwight, David Robinson, Hakeem and kyrie???
He's the Truth....comeback to this comment in 5 years....He ain't gonna be a bust....
If a team isn't a obviously contender they should 100% tank for this kid
victor 🦄🦄
This kid is mature beyond his years
Incredible, right ? The other surprising thing is how comfortable he always was with his extraordinary body, even as a teen. He has a strong inner mental built.
@@Desi365 He is special!
I hope this dude can stay healthy and not ran into the ground before he gets into the league ..
I was thinking the same thing. Baring injury I see nothing but greatness for this kid 💯
@Oochskilla Young yeah I saw the highlights and he moves very smooth and balanced like he’s only 6’4 .
His arms and hands look freaky lol giant human and beast player!
Wide shoulders so he can easily put on muscle. Going to be scary.
Faaacts. People comparing him and Chet don’t see clear genetic differences. Omg if he can put on weight and keep the same fluid movements 🤯🤯🤯🤯
narrow af what are you seeing
He already has decent muscle tone for being young and super lanky
Demigod
Lmao that should be his nickname he’s literally a 2k created player 😂😂
Season Tank Slogan:
Why win when we can wait for Wembanyama?
Why win when we can Wem?
I know people are gonna be drawn to compare him to Chet, but he's already more bulky than him. And it looks like he's going to grow into his frame. I think he has the potential to have KD's build.
The French slim reaper!
teams finna manage to go 0-83 after seeing this guy going off tonight.
Sounds like a 2k mycareer default answers first press conference. Kid is well spoken lol.
I like how they give the players baby chairs to make them look ridiculous
let the tanking playoffs begin!
Hawks need to take one for the team this season and draft cuh next year
That’s scary because the game is already slowed down for him
NBA still an entirely different speed
This is not an NBA game. Not even NBA preseason its G League preseason!
Not really. The game overseas isn’t as fast. Give him time to adjust.
No no not yet. The really scary thing is the room for improvement for him: it's very big, his decision making in particular in relation to the speed of the game. Very confident he'll figure out everything, eventually and at that point.... God bless his opponents...
Looking forward to this matchup. THE BATTLE OF THE STICKS. Holmgren vs Wenbanyama.
bruh it already happened, fiba U19 championship france vs usa
Underrated comment 🤣
@@cj0618 who won?
@@gc-ej5hf USA. But Chet got outplayed by Wembenyama
@@emilioalvarez2763 bet he’s gonna be a problem. Big time.
Didn’t realise he’s so fluent in English, wow
Look at his arms on the table.
Could you imagine Victor and Chet team up in 2030 NBA season. 82-0
What about the other guy that had almost a 30 pts double double on his head all I see his his 37 where the love for Brodie on the other team
If Gregg Popovich get this player he might be better than tim Duncan Talent wise
He'll be signed soon. He's way to good for the G league.
???? He’s gonna be #1 in next years draft
He's not in the g-league, this was a exhibition between g-league ignit and 92mets (French league team)
The truth
if POP gets his hand on this kid man oh man
LoL, now he does. It's gonna be legendary
Some of the comments here look down on this kid. He carried the French team to the finals of FIBA U18 WC, losing only two points against USA because he got fouled out late in th 4thQ.
Buddy cooler than a ceiling fan🤦🏾♂️😂😂
Maybe he’ll break record for the highest rookie contract.
Tanking this year will be legendary maybe better than the race for number one seeds 🤣🤣🤣
We want this dude in Utah!!!
that would be career suicide
good luck coz the Kings will be on the mix
@@dantevarona8962 i don’t know about the Kings they never have chance
Dave's Voice : Thanos Is Coming
This kid hasn't even grown into his body yet. Wow
Saw the game and this guy is gonna be a a problem. Scoot Henderson is great, dont get me wrong, but Wembanya looks like he can be a cross-breed between Durant and Giannis. Weight wont be a problem, he can put on the muscle.
0-82 szn coming up 😤
If OKC gets a miracle and lands this guy him and Chet are going to be a problem. It's just scary to think about that possibility.
The new Duncan and Robinson
@@seanmike95 better
The true thin towers
Injury towers
W
If I was him which I’m not, I would sit out and wait for the draft. Train and get strong. He’s going to be a problem for Long time if he’s healthy.
He's a professional so he still has commitments in France.
He did that partly, last year played for ASVEL, which is a team that not only plays in french league but also in Euroleague, this year he decided to go to Metropolitans which only plays in France, to reduce the amount of games he plays and not strain his body by travel and have extra time to get stronger.
Imagine him and Chet on OKC!
Consolation prize for losing! Is Scoot Henderson. NBA Draft 23 is crazy loaded.
Question: Why are they playing?
I don’t see how any team could be worse than the spurs
The jazz are as bad
@@GreenlightBze u think so? Like I can’t even tell u who’s the best player on the spurs who jakob poetl 🤣
Jazz also have Collin sexton now lol
Look for everyteam to TANK 😭😭😭😭🤮
If I was Sam Presti and had an opportunity to trade however many picks and SGA for Victor, I would do that in a heartbeat.
I would trade all his first round picks OKC have for the number 1 pick. This guy is the Wilt of this generation
He better start taking visits to salt lake city right now lol
In my opinion he should have stayed in Europe, playing Euroleague games with teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona, CSKA, Fenerbahçe... Would prepare him more to the nba than the minor USA league
He's staying in Europe, this is just a preseason game. I don't know if his team plays Euroleague tho
@@LProds Metropolitans dont play at Euroleague,they play in Eurocup second strongest league
Why don’t he just sit out and preserve himself ? He actually coulda got injured there on that close out flagrant. This guy is def 1st pick
Why don't you not comment and save us from your nonsense
tis the season to be tankin'
Quick reminder: english is not his native language. Vic was always a good school student, aside of basketball.
Jazz vs Spurs games are going to end in 0-0 draws
Knicks.
Suprised he doesn’t have a strong French accent
This is why I told ppl Chet was being hyped. He killed Chet as a 15 year old 3 years ago in fiba. Chet was 18-19. He’s in a different class than Chet.
😂😂 cap Chet is only Older than bro a year and 8 months😭😭
@@ibrahimH20 ok he was playing u19 for fiba 😂😂😂 go watch the game clown lol Chet wasn’t guarding him bc he got cooked kenny lofton was.
@@unpopulartruth1164 all I did was correct you that’s it I don’t gotta watch it
He will be a great Sacramento King once the Kings win next year's draft lottery.
He will boycott the Kings like Luka
Forgot about the Kings. No one is mentioning them lol. Kings at this point are the worst franchise in the league. Suns and Wolves became relevant. Knicks are trending up yet the Kings haven’t been in the playoffs for more than a decade. A Sabonis and Wemba duo does look nice. I think the Kings are probably the most desperate for him.
Have a strange Feeling That Victor Wembanyama is gonna be in a Spurs or Pacers Uniform next summer , just my random thoughts that kid is super tuff tho , could be a generational talent✅
The Pacers will be better than the Pistons this year so I highly doubt it
did dude has max wingspan
The G league getting press conference?
Hes not G League, he's a pro in france technically. But yeah G League does press conferences
That was his first 48 minute game ever????
In Europe, we play 40 minutes games. 😉
🇨🇩 Best Congolese talent since Dikembe Mutombo.
He French homie
@@hansfabiankoeger8657 Victor's dad is Congolese
@@mattybuu4910 I know. But Victor isn't his dad bro
@@hansfabiankoeger8657 So if my DNA is from the heart of Africa, but my mother gives birth in France, suddenly my genetics transform into non-African DNA?
@@tharcisse7103 nationality got nothing to do with genetics. All the white folks in South afrika ain't Dutch either..
1st pick Wembanyama
2nd pick Henderson!!!
I will trade Westbrook for Henderson...
Spurs please tank this season
Imagine if Rudy Gobert could shoot pull up threes & step backs
Dear Victor.... Welcome to the San Antonio Spurs.... 😀
Lil spurs fan
He should'nt play another game until he's drafted....clear #1 pick
He plays again tomorrow but I agree
He will be on the Timberwolves in his prime
Keep dreaming
LaMelo could be playing with this guy next year, but he wants to compete with his roster 😹😹😹
