Spurs
Back on the court, Victor Wembanyama impressed again against the Warriors this Monday, despite a little clumsiness. But for this organizational legend, the Frenchman is truly exceptional.
With 27 points and 14 rebounds for his return to the court against the Warriors, Victor Wembanyama was again spectacular this Monday evening.
It’s a shame that victory wasn’t over for the Frenchman, who hopes to recover some success by the end of this regular season.
Because if some needed a reminder, the Spurs are now officially eliminated from the playoff race.
Victor Wembanyama praised by a Spurs legend
Not a surprise for a still relatively young squad, which will have to give several years to climb back to the top of the Western Conference.
In any case, this is the objective of Wembanyama, whose motivation continues to impress observers.
Spurs legend Sean Elliott said he was shocked by what the man was doing.
"Right now he does it at both ends of the floor… The fact the he only turned 20 is scary, because he has high basketball IQ… he has the right mentality. He's a humble, unselfish kid." 🙌

Sean Elliott on Victor Wembanyama : “Most fans only see the highlights, but if you don’t see him in person, you don’t get to see everything he can do.
You don’t see his creative aspect, his ability to counter, his ability to cover so much ground.
The way he disrupts attacks. It’s not just his blocking, but also his defensive presence. »
“If you go to the paint and Wembanyama is there, you know he has a chance to block your shot just about anywhere.
(…) His passes are incredible, he has real vision on the floor and the team is much better when he facilitates all that.
He does everything on both ends of the floor and the fact that he just turned 20 is scary. »
Sean Elliott is clearly impressed with what he has seen since the start of the season regarding Wembanyama.
Scary when we know that the Frenchman is only 20 years old, and that this is only the beginning of his adventure with Spurs. More recently, even Bill Walton made his little comment about the former Mets.
Victor Wembanyama is unanimous among Spurs legends, like this new speech given by Sean Elliott. We imagine that the Frenchman will appreciate it, he who will have the opportunity to learn a little more during the summer.
