Why Stephen A. has Wemby as a top-3 player in NBA

Victor Wembanyama is averaging 25.0 points, 11.5 rebounds and 3.1 assists on 51.2% shooting for a Spurs team that sits 62‑20, second in the Western Conference and second in the league’s power rankings. The Spurs’ net rating of +8.3 and an 8‑2 record in their last ten games underline how his production translates into consistent success.

Stephen A. Smith’s assessment places Wembanyama among the league’s elite, reflecting both his individual numbers and the Spurs’ position as a top‑seed contender. As the regular season winds down, the focus will shift to how Wembanyama performs in the postseason and whether his impact can push San Antonio deeper into the playoffs.
