7'3 205lbs kid will be #1 pick in 2023 NBA DRAFT. Victor Wembanyama "best prospect ever" (UPDATE: height is now 7'5)

[Kaypain]

these real life 2k demi god kids coming up

 

[NatiboyB]

I JUST WATCHED A VID FROM OCTOBER.

22 PTS...
DIDNT HANDLE THE ROCK ONE TIME
OUTSIDE A DRIVE WHERE HE MISSED
A LAYUP.
DIDNT POST ANYONE UP.

HE EITHER CAUGHT LOBS,
PUTBACKS
OR SHOT OVER SHORTER
DEFENDERS LIKE PORZINGIS.

THATS 4 GAMES NOW.
THIS IS CLEARLY WHO HE IS.

​

so a super thin 7'3 16 year old who will likely end up being 7'5....Yeah I'm hesitant on him long term he may even have some good years and develop but that is a gamble. Is he faster than Bol Bol?

 

[Kaypain]

I don’t trust these skinny 7 foot oafs to be anything more than really good. They won’t be franchise players. KD was always a wing no matter how tall he grew, it was natural while these KP types are more forced and fabricated. He has to guard big men at that size and he’s too slow to guard perimeter players. Draft him #1 if you want to but let’s not pretend like he got next. This is why I don’t believe in Chet either.

People thought Thon Maker had next

 

[Kaypain]

YOU CAN ALREADY SEE
A KIDS ATHLETCISM POTENTIAL
AT 16 YRS OLD.

HE NEEDS TO USE THESE
2 YRS TO PUT ON WEIGHT
AND GET IN THE POST.

GO LOOK AT
KD, ROSE, BRON, ZION, AD, WALL, ECT
AT 16.

​

Does John Wall have the goat highschool mixtape?

KD need to sue these scouts for slandering his name with the comparisons

Chet has found his rival

 

[KingJay]

He's been a big name in scouting circles for a few years now

 

[Guess Who]

Obviously not the same as a real game but he was giving Gobert buckets

I dunno, he hit a couple jumpers over Gobert who was giving him lots of space. Otherwise I saw him having slow feet, being unable to stay in front of Gobert and his weak handle on the perimeter.

Slow feet, but he's lanky enough where he can recover on defense.

Doesn’t really work like that though or guys like Boban wouldn’t be targeted in pnr every time down.

Chet has found his rival

Except Chet is way better. More fluid and can actually handle the rock.

 

[Max.]

Yeah I been keeping a eye on him nh

 

[CHICAGO]

Obviously not the same as a real game but he was giving Gobert buckets

AND GOBERT WAS HANDLING THE ROCK
CROSSING HIM UP
DRIVING TO THE RIM
AND DUNKING ON HIM.

I GUESS GOBERT IS THE NEW KD
OR THIS KID IS THE NEW GOBERT.

That's awesome buddy.

 

[Guess Who]

So I went and did some research and I found this video. He looks way better here than in the video posted by OP imo



I still see stretch big and not a perimeter player though. What I’m most impressed by is his court vision and ability to cover space defensively in the lane. The off the dribble stuff just won’t work against faster defenders though.

Nah he's a stiff and at 16 he's a finished product and a poor man's Gobert

Well I mean if we really wanna break it down I’m still worried about his lateral foot speed and body weight. He does have lots of skills out of the triple threat position which would allow him to play from the mid-post like I alluded to earlier. He cannot play on the perimeter though outside of the odd catch and shoot three. It just won’t work with his lack of foot speed. Offensively, he has potential to be an all-star. Defensively…I’m a little more worried about that. I think he’s best used as a rim protector defensively and should avoid guarding the perimeter at all costs.

He does have lots of offensive awareness, triple threat footwork, a smooth looking jumper, good court vision and patience to find his scoring opportunities.

I’d love to watch him play a real game and not a highlight video so I can see his weaknesses and if his strengths appear consistently enough. But I must admit my impression of him has improved.

They're playing Serbia tomorrow in the semi finals and then the winner of Canada vs USA in the finals (if they beat Serbia obviously)

Serbia has one of the best young centers in the world , Nikola Jovic (not a typo lol) and the US has Chet and Canada has a 7'4 kid that's dominating and a 5star kid going to Alabama as his back up. So hes going against really good comp.
