Victor Wembanyama was already unbelievable. I mean, the dude is out here walking around France as a 7’4 big man while doing things on the basketball court only guards should be doing.
He’s got a floating 3-point shot in his arsenal ready to be utilized at any time. Even Giannis Antetkounmpo thinks the kid is going to be scary. That’s how you know he’s the real deal.
So, in the grand scheme, figuring out that Wembanyama can palm a basket with just two fingers shouldn’t be that unreal. Yet, here we are. Every time I watch this video I’m just taken aback by it. He’s really palming the ball…without using his palm.

YOOOOOOOOOO. COME ON. Y’all didn’t even peep that Wemby’s pointer finger isn’t even touching the ball there.
That’s just unreal, man. How in the world? This dude is truly a basketball alien, man. This is Wilt Chamberlain stuff.
Obviously, this has nothing to do with playing basketball and palming a ball won’t determine if Wemby is good when the time comes. But, man. This is still pretty impressive and is just another addition to the list of unfathomable things this kid can do.
Can’t wait til he hits the NBA.
