Victor Wembanyama is the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft and made a beeline for San Antonio with tremendous assumptions to turn into the ball’s freshest sensation.

The determination of the 19-year-old from France that had been an inescapable result for a long time was declared by NBA Magistrate Adam Silver on Thursday night at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, trailed by serenades of “Wemby! Wemby” from a gathering of Spikes fans waving signs from the principal line of seats.

Victor Wembanyama is the No. 1

Wembanyama shows up with undeniably more level and promotion than generally No. 1 picks. Recorded at 7-foot-4, he overwhelmed his French association in his last season there, driving all players in scoring, bouncing back, and hindered shots.

Presently he takes the action in the NBA, maybe as the best possibility since LeBron James emerged from secondary school in 2003. Wembanyama brings a bundle of abilities that appear to be ideal for the cutting-edge NBA and excessively huge for one player, with the size of a middle and the shooting and ballhandling skill of a gatekeeper.

“Hearing that sentence from Adam Silver, I’ve longed for it so much,” Wembanyama expressed, tears in his eyes as he left the stage with his Prods cap on and embraced his kin. “I must cry.”

Wembanyama was the focal point of consideration all through the draft cycle and sat in the green room — for the brief time frame he was there, at any rate. He grinned for youthful fans who shouted “Victor!” as he strolled around the field, in any event, empowering one to toss him a ball that he marked and threw back up into the stands.
