There are a few NBA players gunning for the prestigious Rookie of the Year and none more so than Spurs’ Victor Wembanyama.
The 7 ft 4 big man has lived up to his billing as the number one overall draft pick and despite playing for a poor performing Spurs team, he averages 20.7 points, 10.4 rebounds, 3.5 assists, a league-high 3.4 blocks and 1.3 steals.
Don’t just believe the numbers or the hype.
Suns teammate Devon Booker believes he is the real deal.
“Just a force. I think my favorite part about him is his mindset.”
The 20-year-old Frenchman is considered a generational talent and will be a force to be reckoned with over the years, and the numbers he is earning in his rookie year, when extrapolated, could be record breaking in the long term.
