NBA – After 58 games, Wembanyama’s big update on the Spurs: “The key is…
There are only a little over twenty games left before the end of the season. This year also marks the big debut of Victor Wembanyama in the league. Following the defeat against the Jazz, the rookie reflected on his apprenticeship with the Spurs at a press conference.
Announced as the future face of the league even before setting foot on American courts for the first time, Victor Wembanyama is meeting expectations, and even exceeding them. The bar was very high, but almost nothing is impossible for the French prodigy. His talent is such that LeBron James nicknamed him “the Alien” just by seeing his actions in the French championship.
And since the day he was drafted first by the Spurs, the former Metropolitans 92 has become one of the star attractions in the NBA. Breaking record after record, he delighted the Texan public. Despite everything, this only serves as a consolation prize because the last place in the West occupied by the Spurs with a sad record of 11 victories and 46 defeats would be enough to make some people leave the ship.
Spurs not patient enough according to Victor Wembanyama
Unsurprisingly, the arrival of Wembanyama is not enough to transform Spurs into a competitive team overnight. But you should know that the Texan squad is the youngest in the entire league and Greg Popovich’s men are still in the learning phase. Thus, the 20-year-old interior player was able to take stock of his team’s season and the lessons he has been able to learn from it so far.
The key is patience. I think it’s the thing I’ve focused on the most in my learning. All the greatest players these days know how to be patient and adapt to the pace of the game. For me, that’s something I want to continue to improve on.
58 matches were played and the last one ended in a heavy defeat this Sunday against Jazz (109-128). The Habs nevertheless have nothing to be ashamed of for their performance, having accumulated 22 points on 9/17 shooting, 10 rebounds, 5 blocks and an interception in 27 minutes of play. We know the demands that Wemby has of him In fact, he is never satisfied with the minimum, because that is the mark of the greatest.
But be careful not to skip the steps, because the road to glory will be long for this young team. That said, the 2m24 giant claims to have found the first key that will lead them to success. Patience is a major factor in success for players in the league. Wembanyama may be impressing now, but we will have to wait a little longer before we see him win his first collective awards.
After 58 matches, Victor Wembanyama was able to take stock of his room for improvement to help his Spurs team win more. And patience would therefore be the key that will allow the rookie to become the messiah long awaited by the Texan public.
