While Victor Wembanyama seeks to get along better with his teammates on the floor, his understanding with Devin Vassell is perhaps the most important for the future of the Spurs. Gregg Popovich rightly spoke on the subject.
Largely beaten by the Suns this Saturday evening, we cannot say that the Spurs are having a good weekend. They will have the opportunity to take revenge on Monday evening during a new confrontation against Frank Vogel’s men, with one imagining a vengeful Devin Vassell. With 2 points at 1/8 shooting, the rear was simply bad for this last match.
Vassell/Wembanyama, the key to the future at Spurs?
However, he embodies the future of the Spurs alongside Wemby, since he can be considered today as untouchable in the eyes of the front office. And suffice to say that there are not many who currently have such a status on the roster. The fact is that Vassell has progressed over the months, especially with Victor at his side.

A few months ago, this action might not have seen the light of day. The Spurs still have difficulty finding Wemby in the paint, even when he is free, but we can see progress compared to October. Normal for these young players who are getting to know each other, not to mention the fact that playing with a 2m24 inside requires adjustments.
At a press conference, Popovich was honest about this duo.
Pop on Vassell & Wemby building chemistry on court: “They’ve come a long way from just being together this season and Victor having so much to see and learn every night, I think they’ve made a great effort to understand what’s going on on the court in various situations…”

Popovich on the Wemby/Vassell duo : “They’ve come a long way since being together this season, knowing that Victor has so much to learn every night. I think they made a lot of effort to understand what is happening on the pitch in different situations. »
Better for Victor Wembanyama and Devin Vassell, who should not be separated this summer in Texas. This is only the beginning of a great adventure between the two, even if there is still a lot of progress to be made.
