- NBA Legends Explain Why It’s So Hard To Guard Victor Wembanyama
We've seen our fair share of rookies making waves in the league, but this 7-foot-4 forward center isn't just turning heads, he's rearranging the entire defensive playbooks of NBA teams.
And what makes this kid stand out isn't just his stature. No, no, no. Wembanyama moves like a point guard and dribbles past defenders easily. He also launches three-pointers from Steph Curry's territory. I mean, who does that?
So, why is it so darn hard to guard Victor Wembanyama? Stick around, because we're diving deep into the skills and strategies that make this 19-year-old rookie a nightmare. Let's roll.

Dude is exactly as advertised
Hands down! been watching balls for a minute now! Old new and all, and I've never seen anything like that!! Im hesitant to say it.. but seems like his game got no weak side!..🤞🏾Time will tell
@@nagomizik9358 it’s a breath of fresh air for sure
I would like to see how he progresses over the years. If he adds muscle, its OVER.
Even better. I've never seen a 7.4 ft NBA player, so skilled and moving so well. He's only going to become better. I agree. He's going to change the NBA forever. Shooting CHECK, View CHECK, rebounds CHECK, blocking CHECK, dunking CHECK, passing CHECK, skills CHECK... I feel sorry for the opponents, who (will) have to guard him already. Looks like he's going to become unguardable. (He's a very good free throw point shooter as well, unlike Shaq.)
@nagomizik9358 I agree. Only 19 years old, so far away from his peak. Only an injury (let's hope not) can hold him back
I don't know why people hatin this kid he still 19 years old and he is still learning. Hoping that wemby get his ring in the future and prove haters wrong. #GSG
They hatin cause they scared and they know deep within them that this man is gonna terrorize their favorite team at some point in the future. Same way people hated on 18 year old Bron for no reason
I think it's mostly due to his height, people assume that it is easy for him just because he's tall, disregarding all his effort to reach this skill level, everytime there are always the same comments saying " if I was 7 foot 4, I would do this and that",
add to this that he's European and on top of that french it's easy for the average American to hate him, at least in my modest opinion.
@@barracklesnar3 REPLIES
Who is hating? I haven’t liked the NBA in over almost 2 decades. Since the last greats from the 90’s retired like Reggie Miller, Kobe Shaq.. it’s just not the same. Now, I try to record and tune into every spurs game. I fuqing love Victor Wembanyama. He has renewed my interest in the nba which I thought was dead forever.
He's 19 years old and just started playing in the NBA with flashes of dominance--and we still haven't seen the best of him.
Imagine the nightmare of teams that'll face him when he's 23-27
@@mikhaelcustodio609even now players look at him like WTF
I watched MJ, LBJ, kobe, KD, and many more. This kid has a much more defined and polish game at this stage compared to all of them. The ceiling looks higher, too. This is KD mixed with Tim Duncan with a splash of awesomeness. Not even a SA fan but I'm stoke.
@@vivienneduong65414 REPLIES
All i say to people when theyre hating early. Hes only 19
I like it when Wemby plays when he's pissed. The great ones channel their emotion to elevate their game to the next level.
If you watch his interviews you'd see that he has a great head to match that unique physical gifts and talents and that is what makes this kid so special. And he's got freakin Popovich to guide his early years.
Bro doesn’t enter his prime for another 7 years just think about that 😭
This guy has renewed my love for the NBA which died when kobe retired. I am totally a bandwagon Wembanyama fan and cant wait to see him play in person when the spurs come to Orlando. He reminds me of a mix between Reggie Miller and Kareem.
I was having doubts when zion and ja were the ones who we bouts to leave the nba to when bron, steph n others retire since they (zi and ja) are a problem off court. But now I can once again lay back and relax that the league is in good hands wit wemby
Every NBA player benefits greatly if Wembanyama is super successful. I bet there's a vibe to "make him look good".
In what way?
These Euroleague players have upped the stakes.
He played pro over seas like luka.
I've been scratching my head trying to figure out why it"s so hard to guard him. Something about him is just different but it's hard to put a finger on.
tall + agil. Hard combo. Moves like a 5foot 6er
Y’all gotta realize social media is at its peak so criticism is as well people will always find a way to try and bring someone down.
If he can keep it up, the only thing that might get in the way of Victor Wembanyama's success is injuries. We've all see big men get fluke injuries due to wear-and-tear. As cliché as it sounds, if he's healthy, he's going to be an all-time great one day
If you haven't already seen it you should look up videos of him stretching. This guy takes care of himself very well and I've rarely seen people as tall as him being so flexible
@@tombehaut2 REPLIES
I really think he will be mvp next year scoring 40-50 pt per match. If the spurs get two better players. The guy is at the same time a duncan ginobili and parker combined into one guy. Imagine if you bring a PG and a 3pt all time scorer in the team. No team will stop them. The second half of the season will show already sign of what i announce.
oh my god... 2 weeks ago the were 3-5, they haven't won a game since the release of this video
I like Wemby you're the best keep going
Is this the same dude that does Hoop Reports? Because the voice is very similar
Am i tripping or does the voice of the video on like 3 channels
Will go down in NBA history as the G.O.A.T.
Love this kid and the Spurs, but his 3 point game seems off and the is still very turnover prone. I think all of this will work its self out and can't wait to see this guy get better and better.
Tako Fall is developing. Theres players for rim protection.
His mental state is most impressive.
He's Kareem 2.0. All he needs is a Magic Johnson..
AYYOOO
He is a Kareem and a magic Johnson
@@Speed_Racer.3 REPLIES
He is the new unicorn 🦄
I don't know to be about a foot shorter bam sure made it look easy
Steph curry must heard that like a NBA 2k created player from me
This dude jumps AFTER he dunks 😂
“NBA legends explain”…opens with Perk.
I believe you victor
what's crazy is that while Wemby is gonna be the Pinnacle of this "big man who moves and balls out like a NYC park PG," we are ALREADY seeing the influx coming, or here NOW, with Chet Holmgren.
Then, if at the combine, Matas Buzellis does indeed measure 7 feet (and he toughens up), we've got another one coming in next draft.
Year after that, similar situation, if the MSU Spartan Xavier Booker has one more little growth spurt in him and gets past 6'11", which the saying is likely, while 7 ft aint 7'4", this kid is maybe more athletically gifted than all of these aforementioned players.... and i aint done lol....
Same draft we might see Booker, you got Cooper Flagg coming around the 7ft zone, possibly will be by the time hes 20, and same thing---they're already calling HIM a "problem" for the NBA....
It used to be that you were wayyy behind the big shift in talent if you didnt have a PG that could score...while that is probably here to stay, with all these unicorns coming up, by 2026, if you dont have a 7ft/7ft+ player in the guard mold, you're not only gonna be behind the times, but you're just not gonna be able to win...
if you aint able to get one of those, then you gotta disrupt em, and the only guy i see doing that on the defensive end, which i cant believe no one else is studying this kid's 3pt shot defense and spending 2 hours every practice on mastering it, is Mattisse Thybulle.
Go watch THINKING BASKETBALL's piece on him here on youtube....then youll be pulling your heari out of your head like i am that my team hasnt traded for him friggin YESTERDAY and why yours hasnt either
Dr. J, M. J., Lebron, now we have Wemby. Awesome!
I wanna see wemby vs Steven adams
The spurs literally strike gold
He's an ET . That's for either Alien, or Eiffel Tower, or both.
lol
@@NovaNomad4542 REPLIES
i think it might be something to do with his height
bar any injuries he's the rookie of the season and Rookie Allstar
100% that 38 point night proved all of the haters wrong. he's the real deal
@@MrSports yeah, I hope injuries will not affect him like his fellow tall guys
I personally don't see him getting any 'major' injuries. He's super flexible for his height, like more flexible than most people. Not to mention, he's been tall ALL his life, as opposed to antthony davis who was a PG in HS, then had a growth spurt. He's used to his body, the only major injury he ever had was a stress fracture, but nothing to his joints, muscles, knees, ankles, etc. @@dynasty_dimension

Chet Holmgren might have something to say about that ..
An all Europe team would DESTROY everyone else
I’ll save you 10 mins he’s hard to guard because he’s tall 😂
Shaq with the cheezy metaphors......Most sensitive thin-skinned legend ever
Comparisons to Shaquille O'Neal are stupid. O'Neal never had much in the way of skills.
Shag is not the president of big men.
🎉
If he stays healthy and got some more pounds and continue to better up his skills. I think he will be the best basketball player ever!!! I hope that not some f**'*g player got the order to damage him by purpose!! Like in icehockey. I am sure he could dunk on a 12 foot rim and even touch the top of the backboard! When he in this clip grabbed the ball for the dunk he took it 2 feet over the rim!! with bended arms!!! and he can still grow one inch or two! The only one i can think of besides him is wilt Chamberlain. My personal goat, but for how long?
Wembys enemy is mostly hes team mates ,they dont pass him the ball. Haha
bruh he is inefficient for now compared to guys like chet, For his size he shoots around 44%.

cus hes rly tall
NBA Legends Explain Why It’s So Hard To Guard Victor Wembanyama *He can shoot He can dunk Victor is 7,4 and shoots dunks over people*
I don’t know why they don’t get physical with him. I’m not saying it’s easy to guard him, but when you guard someone you attack his weakness.
What? Mitchy was noooooo snitchy, if you already.
Chet Holmgren is having a better Rookie Season and it’s not really even close
HE is not the face of the rokie class. ],Just look at ja moran haha .. dude caried his team to the playoff and still everyone talking about zion the next season.
@@shinnkun37302 REPLIES
next to Michael Jordan!
He's 9 feet tall and can dribble and shoot, not so hard to figure out
Soon 7ft+ point guards are going to be the meta of the NBA
This Jokic dk ridin is goin too far now bruh
Umm because he's really tall?
*Who own dah NBA?*
I feel like you don't need a video or an nba player to explain this lol. It is obvious
Of course due is unfairly towering over dues 2/3rds his size at around 7.5 that's in sane..y knot make up a league w only 7ft plus players: inclusive 4 the genetic engineer *
It's unfair 2 dah game 2 let players look like Lil boys nx 2 7foot giant players...it takes from playing real and unnatual ball playing: its knot a circus. The champion Knicks played reel ball and won.*
Kid's got soft hands😊
perkins is not a legend😅
What?
He is nothing.😂😂😂😂
Zion overhype all over again
Chet Holmgren >>>>>>>>>>>> Victor Wemby
Overrated
He is an extremely weak rebounder his rebounds have to fall in his hands. He doesn’t dunk the ball at a high rate for being 7’5. He doesn’t get to his spots small guards push him out. Doesn’t have intensity low motor can see him being a player who only play good every other game like AD
Stay focused on cricket, basketball is not a sport for you, you seem to understand nothing...
He’s gets one or two monster dunks a game, he the best shot blocker in the game and he does get to his spots spurs guards are terrible at passing and entry passes, he’s 5th in the league for rebs and he runs hard every possession and don’t get the ball u must not be watching the game
If you'd actually watch the games themselves instead of just highlights you'd see that he's had many opportunities to grab more rebounds but chooses to opt out, let his teammates get it and instead run on the fast break to get to his spots hoping to get the pass
WTH?
Idiot spotted
Kendrick isn’t a legend
