NBA LeBron James et Victor Wembanyama

Currently on a long losing streak, the Spurs’ schedule is not going to improve with two confrontations against LeBron James’ Lakers this week. Asked about meeting the King, Victor Wembanyama was honest.

With 17 defeats in a row, the Spurs are in an alarming situation. The franchise is not panicking, but it must be recognized that it is not good for Gregg Popovich’s players. The latter hope to win a match in order to breathe, but the upcoming schedule still promises to be quite difficult. As proof, the next two games will take place against the winner of the NBA Cup: the Lakers.

LeBron James, Anthony Davis and company? This is the program that awaits Victor Wembanyama and his teammates. Suffice to say that it is not a gift, even if Popovich hopes to create a surprise. Remember that their last success took place against the Suns. Let’s hope that Wemby responds for such a duel, even if he had the right to a good scare.

Wembanyama honest on LeBron

With what appears to be a nice sprain against the Rockets, Wembanyama came close to injury. Close, because the Frenchman got up calmly, as if his ankle had not just twisted completely on the floor. The 19-year-old is already special, which is very reminiscent of LeBron James, who was also able to overcome everything in his early days.

The two men will meet twice this week, and for a first in the NBA. This is what Victor explained to journalists:

Wembanyama: “Of course it’s different. It’s an icon. He’s someone we used to see on TV when we were kids. So of course it will be even more special. »

Despite the respect he has for James, we do not doubt for a single moment that Victor will try to take victory. A success against the Lakers would be a good way to revive after 17 consecutive defeats.

After the game, however, we imagine that Wemby and James will perhaps have the opportunity to chat a little. Still in front of journalists, Victor confirms that he has not discussed with the Akron native for the moment.

Wembanyama: “No, I didn’t talk to him. But of course, he is someone who must have a lot of good advice, a lot of knowledge. Arguably the most of any player in this league. He is someone with whom I could learn a lot of things. (…) I think it’s him yes, he’s the first (to have called him “alien”, editor’s note).

Victor Wembanyama and LeBron James have not yet spoken, but we have no doubt that this will be the case after the two upcoming confrontations. However, fans are especially hoping for a spectacular duel between Spurs and Lakers.
