GAME THEORY PODCAST: @Danny Leroux is here!
First, he gives us an in-person scout of Victor Wembanyama.
Then, we set the NBA Trade Market here early in the season, with seemingly no stars available right now.

Marc J. Spears: Hoop sensation Victor Wembanyama said if he wasn’t born Scoot Henderson would be the top pick in the 2023 NBA Draft and he is his favorite prospect of this class.

“He’s one of those type of players, honestly, where you say like there’ll never be like another Shaq or there’ll never be another that,” Ignite coach Jason Hart said. “He’s that. You’ll never see another one of those. The scouting report on him is tough. … I’m honored that I’m getting to play him at 18, because at 24, he’s going to be something different.” -via Associated Press / October 3, 2022
“People always try to compare and contrast whoever. I don’t look at it like that,” Henderson said. “I look at it as two good ballplayers.” -via Associated Press / October 3, 2022
