The San Antonio Spurs were one of the worst teams in the league next year, but Victor Wembanyama made it all worth it. The 20-year-old sensation just became the first-ever unanimous Rookie of the Year winner, and he’s already one of the best defensive players, too, finishing second in Defensive Player of the Year voting.
This summer, San Antonio will undoubtedly be looking to improve their roster around him in hopes of finding more team success next year. But what level can Wembanyama get to? How much will he improve? Where will he take his game over the summer, and how will it pay off next year?
During a recent edition of ESPN’s First Take, Shannon Sharpe said that he thinks Wembanyama can be in MVP discussions next season.
Wembanyama’s defensive game is already at the level of an MVP, and his offense got better and better as his rookie season went on. But can he make a real case to win the award?
