Victor Wembanyama Blocking the Entire League for 8 Minutes Straight

[@GoldenHoopsProduction]

The fact that I could make an 8 minute video of Wemby blocks in his ROOKIE SEASON is mind blowing to me 🤯🤯

[@Fast_YT943]

Yea ikr

[@wagwan6ix-topic726]

Man is like mutombo like wtf

[@BV-ko8jd]

And there are still poeple who say its only because of his height....

[@joeyhoser]

Still a couple weeks to go

[@lepourceletbarthelemy6555]

At the end of his carreer, you'll have one full youtube channel dedicated to his blocks videos.

[@robertsmithson4802]

Is there a statistical category for 'blocks and regains possession'? Because if it doesn't exist, someone needs to create it to quantify how much more valuable Wemby's blocks are than anyone else's. So many blocks (in fact most of Victor's early in the season) end up going into the crowd, but Wemby is just pinning shots against the backboard or flipping it to a teammate. It's absolutely insane how he can get more blocks per game than anyone else in the league, and then decide "nah that's not enough" and so regain possession on almost all of them.

[@GoldenHoopsProduction]

Such a valid point mate 🙌🏼

[@IvanAndriade]

Points off turnover

[@explosivehotdogs]

I never seen anyone do that consistently... they also need a stat for those double-blocks when an opponent thinks they can try him a second time.

[@recration]

not only that mate, players avoid to even attempt a fg when wemby is in the paint, its so often now that they simply pass it out for a 3 point shot. if the players were to attempt as many fg in the paint as with other defensive players, wemby would have EVEN more blocks

[@modernway91]

Bill Russell did that a lot on the Celtics

[@elliotdeltoro3319]

It’s not just his sheer height and length, it’s his reaction timing and defense IQ combined with his hustle.

[@B3Band]

[@XxxTheFireEmblemxxX]

No, it's pretty much his height. He gets beat to the rim all the time. There are multiple breakdowns on KZbin that show he plays bad defense, but his length saves it.

[@dvs620]

Then there's the one where a bigger guy will get him back on his heels, go up for a shot just for Wemby to reset his feet and get the block anyway. He did this to Jokic multiple times. The one everyone remembers is against Giannis. And the Rockets block where his momentum carries him under the basket and recovers for the 2nd block.

How he's changing the game? He has the genetics, unless he bangs 20.000 women like Wilt and brings more tall freaks to the leauge, he ain't changing nothing. It always been obvious that tall athletic people are meant to play in the NBA, but they are rare as a unicorn.

[@AktaKharisma]

Idk dude, i think he really is changing the game. Maybe not offensively like Jokic, but defense-wise tho, He's going to be the best if injuries doesnt happen. The way he blocks in video is mostly he only stretchs his arm and casually grab the ball. Size is one thing, but you need high basketball IQ to match the timing of release and accurately pinpoint the ball in airtime.

[@finaldestination5847]

Wemby should win the award of ROY as well the DPOY this season. What he´s doing is insane! I think the spurs will win the title in the next 3 or 4 years.

[@GymLeaderGeo]

This kid is just so incredible for so many reasons. He doesn't just get fingers on a ball and mess up shots. The amount of contact, redirection, and control he gets on these blocks make them practically steals! His blocks are out of the world, and it's just his rookie season! It would almost be enough on its own to make him a valuable pick, but then we add on that he's shooting 46% FG, 32% from 3, getting tons of rebounds? He's honestly such a menace. I would be terrified to go up against this guy. Teams are going to need unique gameplans just to work around his play and even then, he's still just such a solid player, he can bring value regardless. I especially think he carries his height in an unassuming way and that surprises people a lot. The way he holds himself when he's in an athletic posture disguises his size. So when people are going up near him thinking they're in the clear, the amount he can elevate just by literally standing up straight is surprising a lot of shooters and drives. It happened constantly in this clip, it's going to keep happening. I'm no spurs fan but this kid is amazing and I can't wait to see his continued growth and potential.

[@hyperfluous4751]

Nice spotting his deceptive ability. You're right. He crazy agile, and it seems like crouches very low before completely reaching out of nowhere to snatch shots out of the air. His athletic posture though, while unassuming, Is also made to tower over opponents and smother them when guarding them, So he can take up physical space and impose himself when he wants too..

[@Narikvp]

Never thought there could be a better defensive big than Tim Duncan, and now we see the next evolution with the spurs? crazy

[@nimocash3535]

He also make some good assist and he will improve. So, even if others teams make an anti wemby plan, this kid can pass to his teamates. Wemby need another good defender to help the team when he will be on the bench and a good pg.

[@thibahult]

That's it. ofc with this body he had to defend well, he had to guard two guys in same time, he had to take rebounds, pass well, dunk often... this is the theory with this body. But so many tall guys have to do that and they don't... so many musclemen have to do that and they don't... Zion, Holmgren, Gobert, Embiid, Bol Bol etc... even KD, I mean especially in defense ! So many great NBA players can do one of these things, but they don't or not all of this... We have to admit, they still great but they are'nt Wemby. And like he said, this is just the beginning.
