NBA – Shocked by Wemby’s hand,
Nuggets player created a stir:
“I will have nightmares tonight… (video)
Denver players were treated to quite a unique experience tonight, since they faced San Antonio and therefore Victor Wembanyama.
Even a month after arriving in the NBA, the Frenchman still has the ability to shake many people with his insane physique and that was quickly proven…
So, the Spurs certainly left Colorado with another defeat in their pocket (132-120).
But on the one hand, the result was expected against the defending champion and on the other hand, that did not stop Victor Wembanyama from carrying out a real massacre against Nikola Jokic, his first real big test on racket.
Better yet, the first pick of the final draft outright allows him to let loose something never seen before in history.
Suffice it to say that the Serb and his teammates will not forget their first encounter with an alien like the French pivot, whose appearance, even the slightest, was scrutinized.
It’s no surprise when we see the faces of those around him… In this case, it was playmaker Jalen Pickett who caused a stir last night in the Mile High City after giving the V salute first time on the field:

For your information, Pickett is only 1m88 tall.
Suffice to say he looks like a dwarf next to Wemby and his 36cm tall and that’s clearly shown by the size of their hands too… Habs’ giant feet clearly did shake him and we can understand that.
Apparently, his stunned reaction provoked others as fans were amused by his attitude:

Him after Wemby… “What the hell?”
In addition to being a physical alien, Victor Wembanyama also impressed the Nuggets with his ability to dominate the game last night.
Having a performance like that against the defending champion and his superstar Nikola Jokic is truly not for everyone and that was underlined.
Let’s hope it continues like this.
