Victor Wembanyama is like a taller, more handsome, more talented version of Chet Holmgren.

“Surely, if the Thunder called about trading for the No. 1 pick, the Spurs’ ask would include All-NBA guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, All-Rookie first-team pick Jalen Williams and all eight extra first-round picks Oklahoma City has coming over the next four years…
Both young big men stand out for their ability to create shots off the dribble at their size, but Wembanyama’s superior size (he’s 7-foot-5 in shoes to Holmgren’s 7 feet and has an 8-foot wingspan as compared to Holmgren’s 7-6) and higher-usage offensive role portend greater NBA upside.
Add in the fact that Holmgren is a year closer to restricted free agency after missing his first NBA season because of a Lisfranc injury, and the Spurs would surely reject this offer, even if the Thunder threw in more draft picks from their stockpile. That’s a testament to how special Wembanyama is as a prospect.”

No they dont ,this is click bait .
Laker - Warrior propaganda bull facilitated by their ABC Disney mouthpiece.
ESPN has a whole feature of hypothetical trades for Wembanyama that they acknowledge would never happen.
It’s no different from 1997 features about trading Tim Duncan for Karl Malone and John Stockton.
Just s and giggles.
From the article:
Oh.The Spurs aren’t going to trade the No. 1 pick
Honestly these sorts of crappy clickbaity articles will create Spurs fans. They get fans interested in Wembanyama and some of them will follow him and his team.
It’s just a scenario. But if that’s offered to me? I’d do that in a heartbeat. One injury and it’s all gone for one player. On the other hand, I get Chet, JDubs, SGA mixed with Sochan, Vassell, Keldon, Collins. I think that’s a contender from day 1, plus I get all the 1st round picks on top of my picks??? I’d keep adding to my assets every year, or trade some of those picks for an All NBA like Luka or Giannis. Only someone galactically dumb would not take that offer.
...but let me write a wordy article about it anyways. wasting my time and yours lol
It would be a very bad pr move for spurs to trade for him
You waste 10 hours a day looking at women that you can not have
I really like Holmgren but ROFL at the idea of trading Wemby for anything OKC can offer.
Espn,
Here is a proposal for you:
Curry for Tre Jones
Lebron for Dougie McDermott
Spurs will throw in a signed scarf from Caitly Jenner. (Sochan said he has one)
There's no way on God's green earth that PATFO would trade Wemby for the world right now. He's been on their radar for some time now, thanks to TP9. They have put all of their eggs in one basket for him. So now they finally got their man, and it's Wemby or bust, unless he's a bust. But all of these click bait scenarios are entertaining, but after while, they become annoying. They seem to be jealous and disrespectful to the Spurs and their fans as well. SMH...
I actually kind of enjoy these articles as we enter the dull days of the offseason. If anything, they give a perspective of where the national media is already valuing Wemby.
The only one I saw in the few that have come out that was almost intriguing was Banchero + Suggs + 6 + 11. It is still a hard no, but that’s at least the kind of proposal that is fun to think about.
Black
Vassell
Johnson
Banchero
Collins
With Bran, Sochan, Suggs, and Pick 11 off the bench. I’d rather have Wemby, this would actually be a fun team.
AI can churn this garage out for them quickly and cheaply so why not? SMH
ESPN still sucks. Has for a long time now. They peaked in the 90’s — early 2000’s.
Holmgren is going to be an injury bust.
Wemby is much stronger.
I think this beats your line-up:
Jalen Williams
SGA
Vassell, Keldon
Sochan
Chet, Collins
Plus all of OKC FRP’s on top of ours to trade for disgruntled All-NBA and bruiser to spare.
It’s a stupid offer, but hey if we’re passing time.
Suggs had a garbage season.
BSPN really wants him away from here, huh
i'm not saying i know where the line is... but there is a line.
between chet, sga, giddey, jalen williams, and about a billion first rounders, theres a point where its just too much to pass up. but neither OKC nor SA would really have that conversation
The money to be made off Wemby hype is too much to trade for really anyone right now.
