Victor Wembanyama Dunk in Clippers vs Spurs Goes Viral

Victor Wembanyama Dunk in Clippers vs Spurs Goes Viral

The San Antonio Spurs have a superstar in the making in their second-year center Victor Wembanyama. All eyes have been on Victor since the Spurs signed him with their #1 overall pick in the draft, following in the footsteps of the Spurs’ other two #1 picks, David Robinson and Tim Duncan.

Wembanyama was highlighted by his defensive skills and he showed that in full force against the Clippers last night. What’s perhaps even more impressive is his agility, considering his staggering height. Late in the third quarter of the game against the Clippers, Wemby showed his full potential in a series of events that went viral on X.

Fans were quick to express their surprise at X: the post racked up more than 121,000 views and 729 likes in less than 30 minutes.

Via @the_sahiil: “Seriously! Wembley’s skills are next level! “

Via @nathaliemayy: “Wemby is just different he does this like it’s nothing… I was still shaking from that block to the dunk sequence.”

Victor Wembanyama is a once-in-a-generation athlete in the true sense of the word. There hasn’t been an NBA player his size with the ball-handling, shooting and defense he’s capable of. If things stay the way they are, the San Antonio Spurs will have a very bright future.

Victor Wembanyama finished the night against the LA Clippers with 24 points, 13 rebounds, 9 blocks, 3 steals and 3 assists.
