Exactly how good is Victor Wembanyama? Is he top 10? Top 5? Top 3???

I’m calling it now, in October 2025. It will be consensus opinion by April 2026. Wembanyama is the best and most valuable player in the NBA this season.
 
This is why you still get told that children should be seen and not heard.
You saying he will
Be better than Duncan? Back to back MVP and multiple finals mvp

You saying wemby will have a finals mvp in both conferences?

He will be great. And he will be top 15 if all goes well

He’s not better than Pat

He’s not better than Barkley

He’s not better than the Dream

He’s not better than Wilt
 
The thread isn't asking how he compares to legends-- Who in the NBA right now is better than him?

He’s 5th in PER.

U see the names above him

What do they ALL have in common.

All foreign while 6-10 are American.


He’s 5th in PER.

So you think he’s top 5?
 
I’m in Philadelphia right now and I’m reading your question thinking of the question and the answer through the africana prism. You know wilt didn’t like black people right?

Yeah, I'm familiar with Wilt's bullshit, his politics, and his general asshole personality, but if we are going to use the Africana prism, there is going to be a ton of people we are going to have cancel becuase of their lack of like for Black people.

If we are purporting to be in pursuit of truth, we should always be consistent in speaking it. Basketball is a game and leisure activity. Life is life. Wilt did not like himself.

RIP Paul Robeson.
 
If he can avoid injuries to his feet and knees, he has potential to be in the top 3 ever. Wemby is literally an "up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, b, a start". He is borderline uncheck-able. His height, height, and his ability to move like a small foward, changes everything. I felt the same way about Durant early on. His length/height, paired with him moving like a shooting guard, makes him nearly impossible to guard.
 
Who beat Lebron
So did Jeff Green (stater) and the 12th man on the Spurs. Jeff Green started over Manu. Does that make him an all time great?

Fennis Dembo beat Magic Johnson in a champion game. That means nothing.

What's your point? Are you white? Hes s DEI HOF nothing more.

If he was as good as you say he was he would have been a starter and not a 6th man.

Durant never went 4/14.

But how good is he RIGHT NOW?

Everybody keeps saying he has potential to be an all-time great but everybody already knows that.

How good is he right now?
