Yes, it’s preseason. But Wembanyama has shown to be not only an offense-altering defender in the paint but he’s even able to keep up with hyper-athletic wings like Wiggins from the perimeter and swat three-ball attempts from the likes of Klay
He’s already one of a kind
I think if the Spurs had him sit in the paint and only worry about rim defense maybe, but they seem to have him on the perimeter a lot.
Because he was getting manhandled in the post by random 35-year-old Eastern Europeans who smoke a pack a day. A strong post player puts him on his hip and Wemby’s length won’t even come into play. He can be useful contesting shots like a free safety but I don’t see him having any success guarding NBA bigs until he gets way stronger.
