In a few months, Victor Wembanyama will officially join the big league. It remains to be seen in which franchise he will take his first steps in the US… but according to some, we already know who will inherit the first pick to which he seems destined for a long time.
It is now that he is eagerly awaited by the American public, he who ignites the canvas with each of his outings. It will be necessary to wait until next June before Victor Wembanyama is a member of the NBA, he who should be selected with the first choice of the 2023 draft. Between his crazy athletic measurements and his technical background far above average, such a outcome is no doubt for the center of the Mets.
If we had to rely on the balance sheets of franchises in the league at present, it would be the Rockets (13-40) who would inherit the precious sesame for the first pick. But the lottery could change a lot of things and in any case, many people do not believe in the arrival of the big man in Houston. In fact, we can see him joining Texas… but rather on the side of another franchise, which has also been squatting in the shallows of the Western Conference lately.
San Antonio, inevitable destination for Wemby?
Everyone knows he coming to the spurs.

He’s going to San Antonio.
Let’s remember once again, no team is guaranteed a concrete place in the draft at this moment and nothing says that the Spurs will actually finish at the top. But the prospect of seeing Wemby being coached by Gregg Popovich is still very attractive, given the success that the latter had with Tony Parker. And then, the young Frenchman could also perpetuate the tradition of legendary interiors passed by San Antonio:
Wemby would be a perfect fit with the Spurs and history their with legends like Duncan & Robinson serving as mentors for him

Wemby would be a perfect fit with Spurs given their history with legends like Duncan & Robinson who could mentor him
Victor Wembanyama at Spurs, an inevitable outcome? In any case, this is the opinion of some Internet users. Impossible to predict that with certainty, but there would indeed be a certain symbolism that he landed in Texas and made his NBA debut under Gregg Popovich.
