Wembanyama’s Stellar NBA Start: A Face Only a Mother Could Love!
Ah, what a time to be alive in the world of sports. Just when you think the NBA couldn’t get any more riveting, in strolls Victor Wembanyama, the 7’4” phenomenon who seems to have been created in a lab somewhere – is his DNA made up of 90% basketball and 10% magic? If so, I want that lab’s number! The young French star stuttered a bit at the start of his second season, somewhat like a toddler trying to learn a word—bless his heart—but he quickly dusted himself off to show us all what “Aliens” can do. Yes, folks, “The Alien” is not just the name of a movie from the 80s; it’s the nickname of a basketball player who has come to eat up the court.

And did you see that performance against the Houston Rockets? My goodness! “Wemby” scored 29 points with a shooting percentage that’s making the stats dorks back at ESPN lose their minds (10/17). Watching him play is like watching someone play NBA 2K on easy mode—every move seems choreographed, and I half expect him to break into a dance routine after nailing a three-pointer. That sweet shot at the end of the third quarter? It was so beautiful it could’ve been in a music video. There was Tony Parker, sitting there with a proud grin, probably thinking, “This kid is going to make me look very old, very fast.”
Honestly, this performance gets everyone buzzing—Will he become an All-Star this February? The anticipation is palpable! And you can bet at least twenty sports pundits will debate it over their overpriced coffee. If his trajectory is anything like the hype, buckle up, folks, because he’s about to take us on a wild ride.
Now, let’s just take a moment to appreciate the state of the league, shall we? The 2024-2025 season is just getting started, and boy, do we have some surprises up our sleeves. The Cleveland Cavaliers and Boston Celtics are off to blistering starts, and LeBron James’ Lakers are somehow back in the mix. It’s like watching your grandma learn to use a smartphone—it’s a miracle, yet terrifying at the same time.
Remember when the Lakers were a powerhouse with Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol? Those were the days! Now, they’re attempting to revive the spirit of the past like a low-budget zombie movie—except the corpses are wearing vintage Laker jerseys and pretending they don’t have creaky knees. They’ll need more than a sprinkle of magic to pull off a “three-peat” this time, especially with the Mavericks just waiting to trip them up like an over-eager cat at the feet of an unsuspecting human.
So, as we dive headfirst into this season, keep your eyes peeled for Victor Wembanyama. Not just because he can score from distances that would make a GPS break into a sweat but because he’s an actual spectacle. His “out of this world” abilities are what dreams are made of…or nightmares, depending on which team you root for! Either way, get your popcorn and sodas ready because this season is just heating up. Grab your remote; this is going to be one heck of a rollercoaster ride! Just remember: if you spill your drink, you’re not just ruining your carpet—you might miss a historic moment!
The phenomenon is underway. Having missed the first match of his second NBA season a little, clumsy especially in Dallas on Thursday (120-109 defeat), Victor Wembanyama put the clocks are on time against Houston two days later. Determining, he launched the San Antonio Spurs to their first success (109-106).
A 3 points in front of the other French star of Spurs!
“The Alien”, the nickname of the young French star (20 years old), scored 29 points (at 10/17 shooting), in 30 minutes and with a few actions of which he has the secret. We will particularly remember this superb three-point shot in the last second of the third quarter under the eyes of Tony Parker, present in the Texan room.
This strong performance augurs well for an undoubtedly incredible season. which will perhaps earn “Wemby” an All-Star in February, in San Francisco…

While the 2024-2025 regular season has just started, three franchises are off to a great start with three victories in as many games: the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Boston Celtics, reigning NBA champions, in the East; LeBron James’ Los Angeles Lakers in the west, who had not had such a good start since the 2010-2011 season.

At that time, it was the iconic duo Kobe Bryant – Pau Gasol, coached by Phil Jackson, who led the Californian franchise, double reigning champion (2009, 2010) towards an attempt at a “three peat” (treble), finally stopped by the Dallas Mavericks, future champions.
