'Greatest talent of all time, surpassing Robinson and Duncan' NBA No. 1 Wembanyama "Greatest moment of my life...I'm going to lead the Spurs to a championship"

 The San Antonio Spurs have acquired the most talent of all time, surpassing Tim Duncan (47).


The 2023 NBA Draft was held on March 23 at the Barclays Center in New York City. With the No. 1 overall pick, San Antonio predictably selected French center Victor Wen-Banyama (19). At 6-foot-9, he is considered one of the greatest talents of all time, with the skill set to score from both inside and outside like Kevin Durant. 토토사이트 순위 No other player in history has ever been able to shoot a step-back 3-pointer so freely from over 220 centimeters.


After being selected first overall, Wembanyama said, "Words can't describe the feeling. This is the best moment of my life. It's a dream come true for a long time. The five minutes waiting for the pick couldn't have been longer. When I shook hands and hugged Adam Silver, it felt real."


San Antonio drafted David "Admiral" Robinson with the first pick in 1987. In 1997, they selected Tim Duncan to start a dynasty once again. With their lucky pick, San Antonio once again succeeded in acquiring the best talent since LeBron James in 2003.  


Wembanyama said, "My message to Spurs fans is 100 percent clear. I'm going to do everything in my power to lead this team to a championship." 토토사이트


One of the greatest coaches of all time, Gregg Popovich, was also motivated to come out of retirement. "Wembanyama has both intellect and emotion. He knows what he's capable of. It's my responsibility to develop him to the expectations that people want. He's a player who doesn't need a lot of advice."


Wembanyama is expected to make his debut at Summer League in Sacramento starting on July 4. "I had a couple phone calls with him, that's all," Popovich said. I'm confident that he'll be able to communicate with the staff that's been teaching him his whole life."


"He's not going to be the next Kobe or LeBron, he's going to be Victor and no one else. That's what we want," Popovich said, marking the birth of a new superstar.
