Victor Wembanyama is unlike any player in NBA history.
His incredulous physical dimensions—standing at 7' 5" with a 7' 10" wingspan—inspire the same sense of awe Manute Bol once did. An unshakeable wonder that a human of that size, speed and strength can exist at all, much less play professional basketball. But unlike his predecessors, Wembanyama pairs those physical traits with a shooting touch more often seen in players a foot shorter, as well as a silky-smooth jumper that forces defenders to guard him well outside the three-point line.
