Victor Wembanyama is officially a San Antonio Spur.
After years of anticipation, the French phenom joined the NBA on Thursday night as the first pick of the NBA Draft. As widely anticipated, the Spurs selected the 7-foot-4 center, who's expected to transform the position and lead San Antonio from the lottery back to NBA prominence.
Wembanyama follows the footsteps in San Antonio of fellow No. 1 overall picks David Robinson and Tim Duncan, who went on to Hall of Fame careers while combining to lead the Spurs to five NBA championships.
