“I think he is mature for his age. He wants to learn. He reads a lot, which is really cool. He is smart. He knows not to get distracted and that is why he is so good. I love how much he wants it. He’s hungry. He wants to win. He’s a team player, and he wants to win together. It’s super exciting to have the No. 1 pick. It speeds things up. Hopefully, we all stay healthy. We are going to work hard to play as a team, and I think we are going to be pretty good.”

Hopefully, they have a solid developmental year, and it’ll be interesting to see if they can make the play-in tournament.
Victor Wembanyama has already shown some solid flashes during the Summer League, averaging 18.0 points, 10.0 rebounds, and 4.0 blocks in two games for the San Antonio Spurs. Defense will clearly not be an issue for him, and it is quite possible that he’ll make an All-Defensive team this season.
