Wemby watch

"Then there was the offseason lore: training with monks, conditioning under the whistle of Kevin Garnett, drilling footwork with Hakeem Olajuwon. Despite only clearing 40 games in 2024-25, Wemby was busy for a guy recovering from a blood clot. But aside from his bill of health, the question around Wemby's potential was always going to be how fast the training and lightning-fast improvement would fully matriculate for him. Could Victor Wembanyama actually grow into a ball-dominant focal point on offense, the way he already is on the less glamorous end of the court?"



 
Wemby might not be the best player in the league this season but one thing is for sure.
If I could pick one guy in the league to start a franchise with then it would be him. No one else would really even cross my mind.
 
This is the race to watch this season for sure. Pretty damn close. I would give Jokic the edge right now, simply due to averaging a triple double, and being ahead in rebounds, assists, and virtually the same on points, not to mention efg% (66% vs 53%). But this will make this season fun even while the Jazz tank their way to another predetermined 5th pick.

Jokic is still the best player in the league, by a distance in my opinion.
 
I really struggle to see Wemby playing a whole season and intense playoffs staying healthy. I hope he does, for his sake. But the Spurs should plan now as the time to go for it. I doubt he has a long career and will likely peak earlier than most players. He could prove me wrong though.
 
What about Luka Doncic?
He is putting up some great stats
He is #3 in the race
Last time i checked (like 5 days ago) I actually had Giannis at #1
So he should probably be compared as well (I have no idea where he stands currently but I had him first at one point)
 
Giannis: 32.3 ppg, 12.6 rpg, 6.3 apg, 68% from the field, and 60% from 3. eFG of 70%. 1 Block and 1 steal per game.

His efficiency numbers might make him number 1 overall. Plus he is typically though of as a good defender.
 
Luka: 40 ppg, 11 rpg, 9.2 rpg. 50% from the field, 30.5% from 3. eFG of 57.1
Horrible defensively most likely.
He would be 4th for me.

Just off numbers I go Giannis, Jokic, Wemby, Luka. (there might be another couple who deserve to be in the convo as well that I dont know of) SGA is playing really well too but I dont have him with those 4. Maybe he rounds out the top 5
