Rising San Antonio Spurs star forward Victor Wembanyama has been turning heads in his rookie season in the NBA after rocketing up to the league’s elite defenders in his inaugural campaign in the Association. And for good reason, given how much he is already impacting the play on the floor on both ends.

Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear what they had to say about Wemby in the Paris Olympics.
