On the occasion of the “NBA Con”, a space for exchange between a few personalities and the public, Victor Wembanyama was able to meet some legends yesterday, and even exchange with some of them. And when you find yourself on a stage alongside Isiah Thomas and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, we shut up and listen.
If Carmelo Anthony was able, for example, to type the discussion with Scoot Henderson, the first pick of the last Draft therefore had the immense honor of sharing the stage with Isiah Thomas, titular leader of the Pistons, double NBA champions in 89 and 90, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, legend among legends and still the leading scorer in NBA history until last February. The kind of gift that cannot be refused, and if we felt very logically impressed, the V was able to give the change in relaxation to these two monuments.
“I’m just a rookie, I still have everything to learn. (During the first game, editor’s note) I didn’t really know what I was doing, and the next games I probably won’t know either… It will come with time and I hope we will be ready for the start of the season .
Yes I’m like a kid right now, I’m still a kid but I’m ready to learn.”
After having been able to benefit from the good advice of the legends of the Spurs Nation on the evening of his Draft (Tim Duncan, David Robinson, Sean Elliott and Manu Ginobili), Victor Wembanyama was therefore able to listen wisely to the words of Jabbar, and without going too far …let’s say he’s the kind of guy you listen to.
You’ve got things to learn, but it looks like you’re a smart young man, and you’ll get there.
Ok, so what kind of pressure is that? Possibly at the top of the list, but for a few months the V has seen others and will probably try to make the best of it all. But it’s starting to do, things to tell.
