Darvin Ham draws parallels between Victor Wembanyama and LeBron James
Victor Wembanyama, the San Antonio Spurs’ top draft pick, has been generating immense hype and comparisons to LeBron James in his early NBA journey.
Wembanyama, a 19-year-old rookie, is already drawing more attention than even James did at the outset of his career.
Lakers head coach Darvin Ham, when asked about the comparisons, remarked, “It’s close. But again, we’re just at the outset. Young fella is really, really impressive what I’ve seen thus far and watching him when he was over in France.
“For the most part he has a long way to go. He definitely has the potential. We’re talking about the durability, the self-care, the work that’s put in. He has the potential, I’ll say that again. But time will tell.”
Wembanyama’s first two regular season games have been nothing short of exceptional, with averages of 18 points, 8.5 rebounds, 2.5 steals, 2 blocks, and 1.5 assists in just 27 minutes per game.
As the basketball world continues to witness the rise of this young phenom, the comparisons to James serve as a testament to the potential and excitement surrounding Wembanyama’s NBA career.
