Paul George and the Clippers fans will pray for him to stay healthy because with him and Kawhi Leonard on the team, they might have a chance at a deep playoff run. With the star forward making claims about how the LA Clippers will be among the three best teams in the Western Conference this season, apparently, the chances seem high.

However, predictions have seldom favored PG13. With him admitting that he was wrong about the previous speculation about the 7?4 center of the San Antonio Spurs, predictions don?t seem to be his strong suit. Well, the 19-year-old rookie did prove a lot of people wrong with his gameplay.

Victor Wembanyama and the Speculations Around His Debut

It started back in 2021 when PG13 dismissed the claim of Nicolas Batum. Paul rubbed off on the prediction that Victor would be able to stand and perform. However, the second-tallest player in the league made headlines with his performances in the NBA Summer League.

In a recent podcast on ?Podcast P,? Dallas Rutherford addressed the same claim and taunted the ‘overconfident’ George P about the dismissal. In response, the 2-way great said, ?I take back everything I said. And I knew he was going to be successful in the league, but I thought it was going to be tougher for what he?s making it look right now.”

He added, ?You know, just because of his size, our level of play vs. what he was used to playing, I thought that was going to be an adjustment period for him.? After all, this was common speculation, as Wemby hasn?t played in the league yet.

Victor ?Wemby? on His Way To Create History

Now, after his preseason debut, there are statements like, ?the single greatest prospect in NBA history? and ?he is going to revolutionize the game? and whatnot. Well, the 7?4 giant has got a whole new drill to his name: ?The Wemby Drill’, and no doubt he is being compared to ?the King?.

With the Dallas Mavericks all prepared for the first game of the regular season and making use of the extended guards to imitate the height of ?The Alien?, there?s more to the story. With a wingspan of 8 feet and such a light body weight, the Frenchman is all set for the approaching first game.

However, his performance in comparison to other elite centers like Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid is worth watching. Still, weighing 209 pounds, he might have to face some disadvantages. Not only that, the fear of injuries as observed by players resembling his frame, like Shawn Bradley, Yao Ming, and Kristaps Porzingis, is quite common.
