Warriors With the end of the season approaching, it’s time for journalists to make their choice between Victor Wembanyama and Chet Holmgren. 

Draymond Green, for his part, already has his opinion on the matter.

Author of a remarkable season with the Spurs, Victor Wembanyama is today the big favorite to win the rookie of the year title.

Chet Holmgren has a better collective record, certainly, but his individual performances have dropped in recent weeks, thus benefiting the Frenchman.

The outcome of this trophy is no longer in doubt.

Draymond Green decides between Wembanyama and Holmgren

Journalists will also vote in a few weeks, once the regular season is over.

He is not concerned but Draymond Green has already decided on his side, who spoke in his recent podcast.

He believes that Wembanyama has made the gap with Holmgren, even if the Thunder player is having a good campaign.

Draymond Green on the Victor Wembanyama-Chet Holmgren debate : “Victor Wembanyama is probably in the top 20 best players in the NBA today.

With his abilities, his size, with his jump shot, which is absolutely magnificent.

In San Antonio, with this staff, watch out for this kid. It’s not a tackle at all (for Chet Holmgren).

“I think Chet Holmgren is a very good player and I know there are those comparisons between the two.

But I think there is a gap between Holmgren and Wembanyama. Wemby is different, the kid is special. He could well win the MVP in the next two years. “

A hell of a compliment from Green, who seems much more convinced by Wembanyama’s performances than those of Rudy Gobert for example.

We imagine that Wemby will in any case appreciate this declaration full of confidence.

He’s 100% a top 20 player

He is right

For Draymond Green, the debate no longer really exists between Victor Wembanyama and Chet Holmgren, and he is undoubtedly not the only one to think so. 

The fact is that the Frenchman has widened the gap, although it is only the beginning.
