Believed to be the No.1 draft pick in the NBA for the year 2023, Victor Wembanyama has left NBA Twitter in shambles with every performance of his. The entire NBA community is watching Wembanyama closely. With his performances in the ongoing qualifiers for the FIBA Basketball World Cup, he is leaving fans awestruck.

Earlier today, in a game against Bosnia and Herzegovina, France center Victor Wembanyama bagged 19 points. While doing so, one of his plays left NBA Twitter in a frenzy. Wembanyama shot a step-back three-pointer. Following this, he instantly looked away. He was confident that the ball would go in. This one shot from behind the arc and the confidence that followed looked eerily similar to what two-time MVP, Stephen Curry does. Fans were quick to point this out.

At a tender age, with a height of 7’4, Wembanyama has created a name for himself already. Each NBA team wants to be associated with his name.
Wembanyama seems to be undeterred by all this attention. He continues to impress on the court and do what he is best at. While already being compared to the greatest of the game, fans are excited to see him perform.

Undoubtedly, the NBA is a big thing for Wembanyama. However, he has another big dream. He said, “This was a dream. The NBA will be a whole new world, but I want to be at the World Cup in 2023.” Wembanyama might have just secured himself a place in the team as he helped France seal a spot in the World Cup after the win against Bosnia.
