Always quite present in defense, Victor Wembanyama knows that he will not be able to block all the shots. He recently took a poster from a Warriors player, but he’s totally unbothered by it. And he makes it known.
He may be a simple rookie, but Victor Wembanyama is widely monitored by opposing defenses. The Rockets have a special plan for him during the Texas derby, with an omnipresent Dillon Brooks and sometimes two, even three players on the Frenchman in order to contain him. The other day, it was Trayce Jackson-Davis who expressed his joy at having put Wemby on a poster .
Wembanyama honest after Brooks’ decline
A problem for Wembanyama? Not really. Post or not, the Frenchman will continue to defend his circle as best as possible. Don’t count on him to hold back and he made that known at a press conference. Like Brooks’ recent comments about him, Victor sees this as a very positive sign from his side.

“When someone does a good deed for me and they are very happy, I see it as a compliment. »
It must be said that with his superb rookie season and his 2m24, Wembanyama now has a target on his back. The best defenders want to contain it and the attackers, like Ja Morant and company, want to display it on a poster. But all this does not seem to bother the Frenchman at all, on the contrary.

Really, cool mentality
Victor Wembanyama is not bothered after the recent comments of his opponents, quite the contrary. The Frenchman knows that he is gaining importance and that the players want to challenge him. Count on him to answer the call.
