Geeking out over Victor Wembanyama’s performance

Related Topics: Victor Wembanyama

If his first game in Vegas made any San Antonio Spurs fans nervous, Victor Wembanyama’s performance on Sunday night should have induced a 180 degree change of heart. He scored a point per minute while on the floor, and looked more comfortable asserting his will on the game. The offense shifted from attempted post ups, to involving Victor in the pick and roll, and pick and pop, which seems to have helped the team get him the ball in his comfort zones. He flashed impressive ball handling skills multiple times, crossing over between his legs while guarded by guards (against Portland’s switch-heavy defense), and showed how good his shooting touch is from deep when his feet are set.
