Les stars NBA Victor Wembanyama et Stephen Curry

For their first confrontation since the pre-season, the Warriors defeated the Spurs this Friday (118-112) and thus obtained their revenge.

Stephen Curry has obviously not forgotten his lost face-to-face against Victor Wembanyama.

Officially, they faced each other for the very first time this Friday. Unofficially, Victor Wembanyama and Stephen Curry had already crossed paths on an NBA floor during the pre-season.

And if this time it was the Chef and the Warriors who won (118-112), it was his French opponent who won their first duel… as well as the between two who then opposed them :

Steph Curry looks back on his viral encounter with Wembanyama

Few players can reach as high as Wembanyama’s sprawling arms. As rare as those capable of chaining three-point shots like Curry.

A master in his art, the Golden State star leader had nevertheless decided to try his hand at Victor’s, namely the in-between.

A memorable sequence which he recently revealed behind the scenes on the Dubs Talk podcast:

When you put Gregg Popovich and Steve Kerr in the same room, funny things are bound to happen. Both have a well-known history.

In any case, the fact that I played the jump ball was Coach Kerr’s decision.

I don’t know if he told Popovich about it or not, but the face everyone made when I approached the middle of the field…

I tried to stay serious, but I was laughing inside because I knew I didn’t stand a chance.

I tried to scare him a little, to see if I could get as high as him and catch the ball. My timing was perfect, I gave everything I had, but he was 20 centimeters taller than me. I had no chance.

Victim of his coach’s humor, Steph still played the game and tried to dominate Wemby despite the difference in size.

In vain. Failing to have achieved this feat, he was able to observe for the first time the hallucinatory profile of the French international, about which he is rave:

Genetics and all these things… It’s crazy! Wembanyama is 2m24 tall. He has crazy talent. It’s a rear stuck in the body of a 2m24 man.

If he did not win his first official duel against Steph Curry, Victor Wembanyama can at least congratulate himself on having left him with a vivid memory.

Not sure that he will have the opportunity to compete against him again in the midfield.
