Basketball fans will finally get to see Victor Wembanyama on the court in the Spurs uniform. Marc Stein reports that this year’s No. 1 overall pick will make his Summer League debut on Friday against the Hornets in Las Vegas.
The 19-year-old center is not expected to play many games in the Summer League though. Wembanyama will also skip this year’s FIBA World Cup.
Unlike most other rookies, the Frenchman has already a number of years of experience playing professional basketball against grown men in Europe.
