“He’s making big progress in all areas of his game, defense, offense, expanding his shooting range and confidence as he proved in the Euroleague versus Milan,” said a European-based NBA scout. “He plays with poise, and simply put he can be Gobert defensively, Porzingis offensively with passing skills a la Jokic. If he stays healthy, humble and hungry he can be the next big thing coming from Europe to the NBA.”
Also SIG Strasbourg sports director Nicola Alberani has important words for the big man under contract with ASVEL.
“He can really be the top European player that ever played the game. He has everything to continue to grow. He’s just too good, of course for the French league. He’ll be very soon too good even for EuroLeague. Americans say: ‘The sky’s the limit.’ But in this case he can be the best player ever. He has everything to be the best player ever for me. It’s a joy to watch him play,” Alberani said. “I think Wembanyama has a unique combination of size, talent and athletic skills combined with an IQ that is really surprising for such a young kid. He really understands the game. And he does it with a height, width, wingspan that is unbelievable.”
In 29 games between BetClicElite and Euroleague, the 18-year-old French phenom produced averages of 8.1 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.8 blocks in 18 minutes.
