Expectations are certainly as high as Victor Wembanyama stands after the Spurs selected the 7-foot-4 big man with the No. 1 pick in the NBADraft. NBA
San Antonio was on Wemby Watch on Friday, June 23, waiting for Spurs No. 1 overall draft pick Victor Wembanyama to arrive in town.
Expectations are certainly as high as Wembanyama stands after the Spurs drafted the 7-foot-4 center in the NBA draft on Thursday. “It shows how much love we want to show to him and that it’s a family here and that he has nothing to stress about. It’s going to be good.” The Spurs were only in position to draft Wembanyama because they were a woeful 22-60 last season and missed the playoffs for the fourth straight season.
