NBA – Crazy revelation about Wemby, already ahead of Michael Jordan in a controversial ranking!

NBA Michael Jordan et Victor Wembanyama

If some observers expected more from Victor Wembanyama for his first steps in the NBA, the fact is that the Frenchman is already off to a monstrous start. He already even surpasses a certain Michael Jordan in a specific ranking… but in this case, this revelation has above all given his detractors something to grind for.

The least we can say is that minds are divided regarding Victor Wembanyama. After around twenty matches on American courts, the French prodigy is seriously igniting debates about his level. Some are not completely convinced by him and he even saw Chet Holmgren pass him for Rookie of the Month in the West. Others, however, defend it tooth and nail.

Among the main arguments put forward by the latter, we find in particular an alleged under-use of the Frenchman by his teammates at Spurs. Basically, they would tend to ignore him and he would also suffer from the very collective system advocated by Gregg Popovich. On paper, it made sense… Except that the latest revelations about the V completely contradicted this theory.

Why Spurs' Victor Wembanyama 'is the Darrelle Revis of basketball'” – NBC  New York

Wembanyama ultra-used by Spurs for his debut

Victor Wembanyama currently has the third highest usage rate in history for a rookie.

1. Luka Doncic: 30.5% in 2018/19

2. Ben Gordon: 30.4% in 2004/05

3. Wemby: 30.3%

4. Michael Jordan: 29.8% in 1984-85

5. Donovan Mitchell: 29.1% in 2017/18

So certainly, Wemby is not number 1 in the ranking (note the presence of Ben Gordon ahead of him), but he is still off to a fantastic start. Even to the point of doing better than Michael Jordan in this area, clearly not something we see every day. In other words, the nugget of the Blues is indeed the cornerstone of San Antonio’s game… and his detractors therefore did not fail to fall on him.

“No one makes the pass at Wemby”

Contrary to what some say, the Spurs are very far from ignoring Victor Wembanyama when he is on the floor.

On the contrary, his usage rate is already quite insane… but there is a difference to be made between the quantity and quality of the balls he receives and that is what we still have to work on in Texas.
