NBA prospect Victor Wembanyama reacted to basketball great LeBron James calling him an “alien” in a Sports Illustrated profile posted Tuesday.
The four-time NBA champion gave his thoughts on the 19-year-old French player, who will likely be the No. 1 pick in the 2023 NBA draft and a future force in the league.
”We’re labeling like this unicorn thing—everybody’s been a unicorn over the last few years,” James said. “But he’s more like an alien—no one has seen anyone as tall as he is but as fluid and as graceful as he is on the floor.”
