Watch Victor Wembanjama make an incredible 360 layup against the Raptors
The NBA finds that out every night San Antonio Spurs unicorn Victor Vembanyama is the problem. The Toronto Raptors find out more about that in real time Monday night as they deal with the former No. 1 pick in the NBA draft.
Early in the first quarter of the Raptors game, Wembanyama drove down the lane and was met at the rim by Toronto forward Scotty Barnes. But with Vembanyama playing like he’s not from this planet, he eluded Barnes flipping in the air to complete a 360-degree layup. The NBA lists Vembanyama’s height at 7-4, but he most often moves as a guard or wing. He certainly doesn’t play like a traditional big man, as he can put the ball on the floor and attack the rim, make acrobatic finishes and knock down perimeter shots.
“I just saw a 7’5 guy do a completely impromptu 360 layup… He’s legitimately the best player I’ve ever seen,” commented a fan.
“He’s a cheat code in real life,” another he said.
“How can you not consider the kid an early MVP favorite 😏” common Ks, formerly Twitter, account.
“This is actually one of the craziest things I’ve ever seen. This guy moves like this 7’5????” echoed another social media user.
“I thought he was going to nail it!” commented another fan.
“Just Wemby doing Wemby 💩! 😂🔥”, simple he stated.
Now in his third season in the NBA, Vembanjama seems to be taking a huge step in his development. He entered the Raptors game averaging 33.3 points, 13.3 rebounds, 6.0 blocks and 2.3 assists while shooting 56.9 percent from the field and 36.4 percent from beyond the arc in three games – all of which were wins for San Antonio.
At the time of writing, Wembanjama and Spurs look to be on course to win their fourth game in a row to start the season, as they hold a 19-point lead over Toronto at halftime.
In the first half of the contest alone, Vembanyama has already scored 12 points on 4-for-7 shooting, along with four assists and a rebound and a steal in 15 minutes of action.
