Victor Wembanyama drops F-bomb on TNT during NBA All-Star weekend
San Antonio Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama has drawn attention to himself with his solid play throughout his first NBA season, and on Saturday night he did so again, this time for a NSFW moment on live TV.
The 20-year-old center was on TNT speaking with the Inside The NBA crew in Indianapolis during their broadcast of NBA’s All-Star weekend and was asked by host Ernie Johnson for the best example of Spurs’ head coach Gregg Popovich being tough on him in his debut season.
The former French hoops prodigy went on to describe a film session with Popovich and the rest of the team from the first few months of the season.

“When we talk privately, he knows like I understand,” Wembanyama said. “I’m smart. I’m trying to do my best.”
