New Orleans Pelicans center Yves Missi spoke on San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama.
New Orleans Pelicans rookie Yves Missi has been a lone bright spot for a struggling and injured team this season. The former Baylor center was not expected to make such a quick impact, but the 6-foot-11 center has half of all double-doubles recorded by NBA rookies this season.
