Future 2023 NBA Draft top pick Victor Wembanyama is taking New York by storm, and he got quite a rise out of Yankees manager Aaron Boone during his visit to Yankee Stadium.
Wembanyama threw out the first pitch at Tuesday night’s Yankees game against the Seattle Mariners, but it was a throw the future San Antonio Spur made into the stands that caught Boone off-guard.
The basketball phenom stands taller than seven feet, and he launched a baseball into a host of Yankees fans in the stands. It was quite a rocket of a throw, and Boone was stunned to see Wembanyama launch one that far.
Boone’s reaction to Wembanyama’s throw is absolutely priceless; the poor guy looked petrified.

While Wembanyama might not have a future as a baseball pitcher, he’s going to more than likely take the NBA by storm in San Antonio this fall.
Boone won’t have to coach against Wembanyama anytime soon, but he’s not likely to forget this throw into the stands anytime soon.
