Draymond Green envisions Vembanjama reaching the MVP feat
in 2025 San Antonio Spurs they were already among the best teams in the NBA to start the season. They are undefeated at 4-0, mainly because Victor Vembanyamagreat game. He is already playing as the odds-on MVP favorite because of his great offense and defense. It’s early, but his play gives him a chance to win NBA awards at the end of the year.
On his podcast, “The Draymond Green Show,” Draymond Green said he could see Wembanyama almost entirely sweeping the year-end awards. Vembanjama is already playing as the best player in the NBA, and he was also the best defensive player at the beginning of the year. Green sees Wembanyama as having a chance to make NBA history.
Green said, “Through three games, he’s showing it. He’s showing it a lot. If he stays at this pace, at this level, he’s going to be like MVP, DPOI, Most Improved Player. Like he could win the top three.”
Green thinks he could sweep the prizes because he doesn’t know about Vembanyama’s weakness. He also feels most people in the NBA can’t guard him.
“He’s going to be able to compete for all those awards,” Green said. “Watching him, you can only sit there and wonder what type of player it will take to guard him.”
Through four games, Vembanyama is averaging 33.3 points, 13.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.7 steals and six blocks per game, shooting 56.9% from the field. He is tied for sixth in the league in scoring with Steph Curry, but is in the top five in rebounding and leads the league in blocks per game.
Draymond says he doesn’t think a player like Victor Wembanyama should be able to win MVP, but based on how the award is voted on, he believes he could win it and sweep the others.
Only three other players have won the MVP and DPOI in the same season: Michael Jordan, Hakeem Olajuwon and Giannis Antetokounmpo. So, Vembanyama would join a rare group and do something historic. This would also be even more historic because no one has won the MVP, DPOI and MVP awards in the same season.
