We've seen Victor Wembanyama work out in a San Antonio Spurs uniform. It appears now that we're close to seeing him play for the first time in the NBA.
Not in a game that counts, of course. But Wembanyama will make his Spurs debut on Friday at the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, league inside Marc Stein reports. ESPN, which is broadcasting Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets, appears to have confirmed the report. It's touting the matchup as "Wenbamyama's debut" in promotional copy.
Fans are anticipating seeing the French phenom.
