Victor Wembanyama on some NBA stars: ‘They don’t seem like they put as much work in as I thought’

Victor Wembanyama: “In both a good and bad way, it’s how truly like the best of the game are. In a good way, some of them are really impressive and inspiring in the way they approach the game every night. But others that I used to like, now it’s like I’m just not sure they deserve it.” Like they don’t seem like they put as much work in as I thought.

What’s the buzz on Twitter?

“He knows the game, he’s natural to it, and yeah, it was a good pass,” said Jeremy Sochan after the game of the alley-oop Wemby threw him vs the Heat.
Sochan said the 2-man game between he and Wemby is natural, they play well off each other. bit.ly/3YagRDu1:55 AM

Wemby gets another light load in #Spurs‘ next-to-last preseason game, a tight loss to the Heat:
1, Wemby could be an even better playmaker this season.
2, Rotation seems set, but Pop isn’t ready to put it in stone.
3, Bassey looks solid in his return.

Wemby finishes first half w/ 17 minutes and the play of the game thus far with that long lob feed to Sochan. Rotation seems set after a first half with no Mamu, no Branham (again) and very little Wesley. Still waiting for Bassey to see his 1st action since knee injury last Dec. – 8:41 PM

Wemby is set to return tonight after sitting out Saturday’s win over Utah. With Bassey expected to make his preseason debut after recovering from knee surgery, Pop indicated Victor could play even fewer minutes than the 23 he logged against Orlando last Wednesday. pic.x.com/usijmgQXjj6:45 PM

Spoelstra said it was impressive to see Wemby play so well in the gold medal game, with the French team carrying the burden of such great expectations: “It’s a matter of time. He’s an incredible talent. He is very dedicated as well.” – 6:31 PM

Spurs coach Gregg Popovich says Victor Wembanyama will play about 15 minutes in tonight’s preseason game vs. Heat. – 6:10 PM

The list of players not suiting up tonight doesn’t include Wemby, who is expected to make his 2nd appearance of preseason in the #Spurs‘ penultimate exhibition game.
Only Duke and Vassell are out, which means Bassey is set to play for 1st time since tearing his ACL last Dec. 10. – 2:20 PM

#Spurs notebook: Pop points to Danny Green as poster boy for pounding the rock ethos…Will Hardy, Patty Mills became close friends in San Antonio…Wemby likely to return to action Tuesday night in Miami.

More on this storyline

Victor Wembanyama: “There are active players I admire. As I said, some of the guys, you know, just kind of… you know, some of the guys I’ve been watching growing up, I’m not disappointed, but I’m like, like that’s it? But some of them, talking like KD, you know? Of course, I get to know Rudy Gobert even more with the national team. I know their work ethic, I know how they view the game, and it’s really inspiring, and I want to do the same as them.” -via YouTube / October 16, 2024
Wembanyama doesn’t find his inquisitiveness particularly unusual. “I just like to understand things,” he says. Others see it differently. “You tell him something, and it could be about anything, and he picks it up,” says Spurs general manager Brian Wright. “And the next time you talk to him, he will know more about that subject.” -via Sports Illustrated / October 15, 2024
