The San Antonio Spurs selected Victor Wembanyama first overall as expected, and the French prospect was in tears as his moment finally came.
Adam Silver gave a glowing account Wembanyama before he came on stage, and the 19-year-old couldn't hide his emotion. "Just accomplishing something that I've been dreaming of my whole life. Hearing that sentence from Adam Silver. I got to cry man," Wembanyama said.
"It's a tough league tough to win. Many players have tried to win for years and decades and my goal is to learn as quick as possible and win that ring." It may have been the worst kept secret in basketball, but it was always going to be Wembanyama first.
