The NBA better do the right thing and allow the Pistons to get the #1 pick in the draft this year. They try hard every night and yet are still the worst team in the NBA without blatantly trying to tank like some other teams have already started doing

Victor Wembanyama is a 7?2″ center with an eight-foot wingspan. Not only that, he possesses the skills of a guard and a forward along with it as well. So, there is no doubt that Wembanyama will have a direct impact on whatever team he joins.
Even though the pace of the game in the NBA is far different than that in the Euroleague, Wembanyama would likely not have too much of a problem adjusting to the league.

One small point of concern is his physical build. Given that Wembanyama?s wide wingspan would help him block a lot of shots. He would arguably need to add more muscle and weight in order to avoid injuries in the NBA.?
