Why the NBA is Terrified of Victor Wembanyama 

He's like a bonus character you unlock for beating the game.

Both his defensive and offensive ceiling’s are off the freaking charts

the scariest thing about him is there are still a lot of room for improvement for him, physically, offensively and defensively. If he stay healthy for the next 2-3 years, good luck to other players in the league.

I've never seen a player that has that much offensive AND defensive potential.

What I think seperate Wemby from other bigs is his hand eyes coordination, I just hope he won’t exert himself.

Praying for his health,we never seen anything like him before..Generational talent for real. Him playing at PF is perfect and I hope they keep him there till he gets more weight/muscle.

Victor Is Something We Really Have Never Seen Before!

The good times are coming back for my spurs. Wonderful.

Im watching every Spurs game this season

If he’s basically has the potential to become an inevitability. There’s nothing anyone can do to block his shot because he’s to tall. If he bulks up he’s the greatest basketball player ever.

Having two potentially all NBA defenders with him in Sochan and Tre Jones will definitely help out Victor

I really hope Pops implements that blocking from a distance thing that everyone thought was ridiculous but seriously affected peoples shot. With someone like wemby even standing 10 feet away, if he jumped the same time someone went to shoot, it would definitely block their line of site on the goal

His conditioning and athleticism is underrated and allows him to maximise his frame. Go and see those guy doing yoga stretches. Guy can do a full split; it’s outrageous. The physical gifts combined with the mind he has for the game… Guy is going to be an all-timer.

Finally a well made in-depth analysis of Wemby

Unless he gets injured, I see no scenario in which he busts. The weight and centre of gravity concerns are overblown for him. The number of Centers that opposing teams will go out of the way to give the ball to so they can take advantage of his relative lack of strength can be counted on one hand. Offensively, he probably doesn't even need to post up to score in double figures with his off ball game, lob threat, and shooting threat. We just simply have never seen someone so agile at this height. Also he reads the game well already and has that good feel that you just can't really teach. His defensive potential is pretty much limitless too. Elite shot blockers and paint protectors that can also switch onto the perimeter while clogging up driving and passing lanes do not grow on trees.

Just so much potential on both ends of the court. And you have GOAT Popovich figuring out how to put it all together. That man knows how to use a generational big man...

Belle analyse. Très complète.

Not gonna miss any of his games..Gonna be crazy watching him play

This was actually a great analysis out of the 10 victir videos ive seen today!

He's definitely gonna win rookie of the year

Just from skimming thru the comments I’m surprised I don’t see anyone mentioning the ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL JOB done here on this breakdown! I’m new to this channel but I just subscribed. EXCELLENT WORK!

I once played agaisnt a 7 - footer (at a park, nothing organized or anything like that). and as an average height dude at 5'11, his height felt insurmountable. The thing is he was built like a skinny 7 foot desmond bane. I simply can't imagine trying to score on a dude who would dwarf that dude, probably has a foot longer wingspan AND moves that fluidly.

best in depth analysis I've seen so far good job

Thank you are so knowledgeable, your review of Wembanyama game has really value poach into it, from now I'll take a more throughourly look at your content, Keep up the good work !

Pop was getting ready to retire before he extended his contract. Wemby is already insane. That coupled with Pop's coaching he'll be a legend in no time. Praying he stays healthy.

Great analysis, love it. Hard to find good discussions through all the noise.

Watched many of these video's on wemby but urs definitely was the best because of how much detail and information you included great job 👏 Wemby wil dominate the NBA these next 10 years mark my words 💯

Don’t let him reach his final form 😰

Of all Wemby videos I've seen, this is the best. Great work :)

The best analyse video of his games, chapeau bas

Great vid!!! Thanks.

Great video man

Brilliant video!!

Just saw an interview with Kareem....who has a very similar build as Victor.. with Vic being 2 inches taller....and both are extremely athletic and flexible for big men.. Kareem said Victor has smooth as silk mobility and has more skills and talent than what he had at that age...3 point marksman and ball dribbling But Kareem said what will truly define him as the best is Victor's maturity and IQ....and then having a great teacher and coach in Pops And Kareem was honored to know that Victor wants to add Kareems skyhook shot to his arsenal...that alone will make him unstoppable Kareem said It's a great time to be a basketball fan

He has very high-level potential as a pick-and-roll finisher due to his balance and hand-eye coordination and poses the pick-and-pop threat🔥 defensively he is just a monster around the paint

So much hype. Hope he lives up to it come regular season.

He does things on offense I've only seen Giannis or KD do. Except he can do both and hes got 4 inches on either of them. Unbelievable.

didn't realize how domninant defensively he would be, unreal

Besides his stats, his impact is really terrifying. Just his presence is affecting the shooter's confidence

No vid from hoop venue for 5 days I knew he was cooking up a masterpiece 🤩 w video man

Great Vid HV (I didnt even watch it) , who do think is better at their peak troy bolton or tim cruz

Kid really is built different, scary to think what his numbers might be like towards the end of his career if he stays healthy and keeps improving

He just moves different from any 7,4 human that's ever existed

Damn, that was a veryyy great video, thx man have a great day too:)

Well explained 💪🏽🙏🏽

Kid is actually the real deal. Potential modern goat but it’s all about health. He’s landed within centimeters of other players feet every quarter. Hope his ankles stay golden

Excited to see Milwaukee and Denver this year and as the new Talent with Blazers and Spurs makes for some interesting basketball for the next couple years.

If he can stay out of foul trouble with all that reaching, and of course stay healthy, he will be a huge asset. Gotta expect his footwork and positioning will improve with NBA experience and good caoching.

His highlights today were even crazier. I can't even believe what I'm seeing everytime I see him play.

Ill say it: he has the potential to be the greatest player of all time. He can pull a giannis and become wayy stronger, and then ggs. He can do everything on offence and he hsd the skills to defend at an all time level. He also has the mentality Health is only thing that can stop him

It's like watching a young Bill Russell with today's footwork shooting training. It's truly awesome.

I love his potential but when I see this man move with explosiveness I can't help but look straight at his ankles like sheesh. At some point physics has to kick in right? That's a large man with a lot of weight on two stilts. I just hope he stays healthy

I Pray he never gets severely injured ‼️‼️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Dudes going to be the DPOY/MVP candidate every year for years to come.

“The head butt is a little bit questionable but it gets the job done” 😂😂😂

I can’t wait to see him grow & to think he’s with Greg Pop and the spurs organization. He’s going to fit right in.

Who would have thought that Rudy Gobert with a green light would be that good.

We never seen a athlete like this it’s going to be interesting too see how he plays his style out and how far he can go with it

You talk so much like Thinking Basketball, which is a massive compliment

He's quick enough to match the pace and long enough to cover a whole lot of space.

Best technical comment about his ability. Proud to be a french guy assuming this young man well "brained" will have as much to learn than to teach ;)

I love the balanced analysis

My kind of athlete love his style can’t wait to buy his jersey and represent

Great vid HV, who would u take defensively in 2023 Draymond or bam and why ?

His offense seems ridiculous. But there are other players you cannot guard either, really. It looks more out of this world with Vic, but the result is the same, buckets. Yet his defense - he is already unique and can do what no one else in the league can. Imagine playing alongside him on defense - his teammates can really go in hard. If Wemby is backing you up and taking away drives, you can really bother spaced out shooters.

Hope this guy stays healthy as a basketball fan

I saw that second clip live and thought he was going to be out for two years.

I just hope they protect him like the Superstar he is, every play is *LITERALLY* a landing space foul and i don’t like the no calls. they’re working against him already 🤬

great video good work @Hoop Venue

The first player since Wilt Chamberlain in which a rule change might be enacted to keep an individual player from being too dominant.

Will be tested if they can reach playoff, where they can involve him on every play. Hope that his stamina can sustain a 7 game series

People are expecting this guy to score 40 per game to truly see him as a threath, but it's really that length is gonna disrupt a lot of plays for sure, and that's the real threath

Everyone talking about how injury prone he is but honestly i think with his size and weight he's actually a very healthy size and that why he can move the way he does. Cant wait till wemby goes ultra instinct 😂

I was convinced he was gonna be just a average big who was overhyped… and then I saw him throw down a one hand dunk an entire foot from the rim entirely over a 6’10 center without even barely touching him on the finish. And then I think 6 seconds later, he was draining a 3 after bricking his last 3 attempts. Like.. dude knows he’s dominant in the paint but he isn’t afraid to show off his flaws so he can note his own progress in the gym compared to the court. He’s going to be insane.

hope wembie will bring back the title for san antonio this year / future to remain this beautiful and special link between France and Spurs . again

His playmaking is going to be really scary i saw a screenshot where there was literally 4 players on his body they can get open shots damn near every play and oh btw he's 19 years old

They might make the court bigger and extend the 3 point line because of him

I think an important thing to keep track of over the next three years is his weight, but more importantly muscle gain. A good comparison would be Giannis from his rookie season, to his third season. I think Victor has to gain more muscle to not only become stronger but to help prevent injury.

Loved the analysis. Who would u take offensively Kyrie or Donavan Mitchell?

Because he has crazy wingspan, he should limit his movements...make them more brief and to the point instead of dribbling too much or moving too sporadically. I believe his body structure isn't meant for that. However, he can do what he wants with his body.

He is like duncan..he uses his big body instead of just jumping around showing his tallness.. it's good to keep his from heavy injury that 7 footers always get

When you are 11 and 5 foot 0 and you and your friends decided to all write down heights of 5’6-6’0 so you can get in the elite bracket of 3 on 3. That’s what that dude that got swiped by Victor felt like! I know cuz I lived it!!

This narrator knows hoop. Refreshing to listen to.

He is basically Anthony Davis but 7 inches taller which is scary. The problem is gonna be health

It's crazy how someone so tall is so agile and light on his feet.

dude's such a major threat I worry about players being extra aggressive.

And can you believe this guy is coached by Pops He is going to learn so much so fast Really hopes he doesn't get injured

This kid is going to revolutionize this game. Gives me Olajuwon and Robinson vibes.... defensive and offensive big

How do I run help defense , as explained at the beginning of the video in 2K?

un gars adorable aussi, les gens ont tendance à oublier ;)

What If he uses the Sky Hook 😳

if you have loads of 8 footers (and high 7 footers, it could lead to players who arent that talented on fun to watch dominating because their physical reach makes it easy for them to block and shoot.

Getting the ball outside the 3 point line @ a stand and just 2 steps and dunks!!!😮

Next video: “can he win MVP in 2023-24, and most improved player with the MVP in 2024-25?”

This guy is f*cking terrifying. Have you ever seen that movie Signs? Joaquin Phoenix? Yeah, that's my face the whole time he 's on the court.

I reached for him in all three of my leagues. And my leaguemates laughed. Bhuha.

He’s not even playing like a rookie lol, I can only imagine 6 years from now…

French legend in the making...

Bro is like a combination of Kevin Durant and Kevin Garnett in the body of a chill af french dude. 😂

With the Offense of KD and a Defense of Mutombo rolled into one
