NBA Fans Were Rightfully in Awe of This Wild Photo of Victor Wembanyama Blocking Andrew Wiggins’ Shot

Victor Wembanyama Andrew Wiggins NBA Steph Curry Spurs

Victor Wembanyama’s NBA career is going to be a lot of fun to watch. If you need proof of that, just look at all the cool things he did in the preseason, which came to an end on Friday night when he led the Spurs to a win over Steph Curry and the Warriors.

Wembanyama is going to be a problem on both ends of the court, which is something Golden State’s Andrew Wiggins learned Friday night when the Spurs rookie blocked one of his shots.

Look at how high Wembanyama is able to get to block shots. This doesn’t seem fair:

Andrew Wiggins is 6'8", 230lbs, an all-star, and an NBA champion in the prime of his career, and Wemby held him to 5 points on 25% shooting and blocked him three times like it was nothing

Wemby is making grown men look like little boys. It's absolutely crazy pic.twitter.com/Mh9GxSa49s
