Lamar Jackson, at 6-foot-2, is far above average regarding height. However, he looks tiny when standing next to reigning NBA Rookie of the Year Victor Wembanyama, who stands 7-foot-4.
“Wemby” just plain towers over everyone that he encounters, everywhere. No wonder his other nickname is “the Alien.”
Jackson took the opportunity to post a story on Instagram consisting of a photo of the duo with a funny caption.
“Ya, I should’ve stood on the bench,” Jackson captioned the post.

As you can see above, the Ravens’ official account re-posted. The young superstar athlete duo took the photo-opp at a Louis Vuitton event in Paris. Wembanyama is back in his native land ahead of the 2024 Summer Olympics.
The budding San Antonio Spurs superstar has designs for leading the French national team to gold on their home soil in Paris. As for Lamar, he has certainly gotten around this offseason.
In addition to this high fashion event, he’s also been spotted at the Preakness Stakes and the Coca-Cola 600 throughout the past few weeks.
