Big man Victor Wembanyama is one of the most hyped prospects coming into the league this season, and many are high on his potential. His combination of size, length, skill, and athleticism is tantalizing, to say the least.

Former San Antonio Spurs All-Star Sean Elliott has recently dropped a bold take about Victor Wembanyama, claiming that he has the potential to become the “best player of all time”. The Spurs notably got the No. 1 pick in the draft, and it seems certain that they will pick Victor Wembanyama.

Though this is a bold take about someone who hasn’t even entered the league yet, Sean Elliott isn’t the only person that believes this about Victor Wembanyama. In fact, some NBA agents believe the same thing, and it is clear that his talent level is through the roof.

The San Antonio Spurs have a good history of developing big men, and they’ve notably helped David Robinson and Tim Duncan become all-time players. Perhaps they can do the same for Victor Wembanyama. They also notably had some other developmental successes in recent memory such as Dejounte Murray, and we’ll see what they can do with a talent like Wembanyama.


Victor Wembanyama Is Already Hyped To Win A Championship With The San Antonio Spurs

During the draft lottery, Victor Wembanyama shared his opinion about his upcoming season for the Spurs. He described the lottery as a “special moment” and added that he’s “trying to win a ring ASAP” with the Spurs.

“My heart’s beating. I got everyone I love around me,” Wembanyama told Brian Windhorst. “It’s really a special moment I’m gonna remember for the rest of my life. … I’m gonna make everything to win as many games as possible. I’m trying to win a ring ASAP, so be ready.”

There’s no doubt that Victor Wembanyama could be a game-changer for the San Antonio Spurs franchise. He will be joining a young core that already features talented offensive players such as Devin Vassell and Keldon Johnson, as well as elite defender Jeremy Sochan. He is clearly going into a good situation, and hopefully, he can make the most of it and become the superstar that he seems destined to be.
