A new dimension of player, something completely unknown willing to break all the molds. That's how the current version of Victor Wembanyama can be defined. The Frenchman has done a great job physically and mentally this summer, now showcasing a much more vertical and aggressive game that has him averaging numbers and displaying sensations worthy of an MVP.
It has only been four games and against lesser opponents, but what Victor Wembanyama conveys is hardly comparable to anything else witnessed in recent NBA history. An extraterrestrial, a 7'3" man moving like a point guard, a player simply unstoppable. His inclination to attack the paint and be aggressive towards the rim turn the Frenchman into a colossus during these matches and suggest that he can maintain these numbers if his health allows.
Wembanyama would break Derrick Rose's precocity record if he wins the MVP this season
Judging by his level of play, it is not unreasonable to think that he could be a strong MVP contender. While logic suggests that San Antonio Spurs would need to have a great season for this to happen, the Texans show great team chemistry, and just making it to the playoffs could be enough to reward a completely disruptive player. If accomplished, Victor Wembanyama would become the youngest MVP of all time, surpassing Derrick Rose, who won it at 22 years and 191 days, as the Frenchman would do it at 22 years and around 120 days. Dreaming is free and relevant.
