They don’t need his sympathy yet. Lots of them heard about what Victor Wembanyama said five months ago, when in a tear-stained moment of resolve he issued what amounted to a warning. On that August night, with an Olympic silver medal hanging from his neck, he stood at the bottom of a Paris arena in front of a San Antonio sports writer and said he “worried for his opponents in a couple of years.” “All of them,” Wembanyama said.
He did, after all, specify that his worry for opponents would happen in “a couple of years.” But the problem with that rapid progression is that it can lead to impatience with the team around him.
