“Victor Wembanyama might add $500 Million to the franchise”: NBA Insider reveals the real reason teams are salivating for the Frenchman

Victor Webanyama

To say Victor Wembanyama was impressive in the two games he played against the G-League Ignite would be an understatement. Going up against another top prospect Scoot Henderson, the French teenager had the NBA community swooning. After putting up a spectacular 37 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 blocks in the first exhibition game, the 18-year-old managed to improve in the second.

The anticipated first-round choice in the 2023 draught went on to produce 36 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 blocks, and 1 steal while shooting 45.8% from the field and 75% from the charity stripe to help the Metropolitans 92 win 112-106.

Numerous commentators, fans, and even current NBA players such as LeBron James, Stephen Curry, and Kevin Durant have gushed over the 7-foot-4 phenom in recent days. However, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski likely revealed the main reason for all of the organizations’ interest in him. Woj said that one club President discussed Victor’s influence on an organization in terms of monetary worth, in addition to labeling him “the sole greatest prospect in NBA Draft history.”

NBA world heaps praise on Victor Wembanyama

NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski recently praised Victor Wembanyama, suggesting that the big man is the top prospect in NBA Draft history and that “no one like him” has ever been. The ESPN commentator stated, ”Victor Wembanyama is the singular greatest prospect in NBA Draft history. He’s that at 18 years old, he was also that at 17 and 16. He’s not coming out of anywhere. The impact he’s going to have on the NBA this season is dramatic.”

He continued “As one GM told me the other day we are going to race to the bottom as we’ve never seen before in the NBA. Teams trying to put themselves in position to draft Wembanyama, or get the second pick and get Scoot Henderson, who in any other year would be the No. 1 overall pick.”

He added “But one team President said to me, drafting Wembanyama might add as much as $500 million to the value of your franchise. At 7-foot-4, 7’5″ in shoes, he’s so advanced skills, there’s just never been anyone like him. The level of tanking we may see in the NBA this year… you may see more players available earlier in the season as teams don’t want to be in a position to be winning… that has an impact on contenders… he is going to impact the league before he plays a minute in it.”

Victor Wembanyama will hopefully achieve success in the league. People will want him to be a top player right away and a franchise savior, and it is evident that Wembanyama is under a lot of pressure to perform well. Right now, Victor Wembanyama is most likely focused on honing his skill and becoming the greatest version of himself by the time the 2023 NBA Draft rolls around. We’ll see who gets the No. 1 selection at the end of next season, but many teams will want to bottom out and win fewer games.
