The 'fool' who took a selfie with Wemby on the court, suspended for life by the NBA

The NBA has banned for life a fan who rushed onto the Frost Bank Center court during the first Finals game to try to take a selfie with Victor Wembanyama. The incident occurred with 6:28 remaining in the game, which the New York Knicks eventually won 105-95 against the San Antonio Spurs.

The young man, who was later arrested, jumped onto the court with a mobile phone in hand and headed directly towards Wembanyama before being quickly subdued by security personnel. The league also confirmed that a second person will also receive a permanent ban for their involvement in the incident.

Wembanyama himself admitted after the game that the situation completely took him by surprise. “I had never been in a situation like that,” the Frenchman explained. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver announced that both individuals will be banned from entering any league arena, emphasizing the serious consequences of such behaviors.
