NBA: Victor Wembanyama debuts in Las Vegas Summer League

Thousands of NBA enthusiasts waited for hours as Victor Wembanyama made his debut in the Las Vegas Summer League. Thousands of his fans bought the ticket for USD 150 and queued up at the gate of Thomas and Mack Arena for hours to secure a good seat so they could see the 7 ft3 big man in action for the first time.

Fans packed the arena, craned for a better view of the debutant. Superstars like DeMar DeRozan, Trae Young, and the former great Kareem Abdur Jabbar reached there to applaud the new player.

Wembanyama did not disappoint the crowd completely, but he could not shine beyond a point as well. He blocked pick number 2 Brandon Miller’s 3-point attempt and air-balled a 3 in the second quarter. But he struggled with his positioning and it appeared that he needed more strength to reach his spots effectively.





Kai Jones was the player who received the greatest cheers.

Acknowledging that his game was not up to the expectations, Wembanyama told journalists after the game that he did not know what he was doing o the court and that he would learn many things from the next game. His first game will be remembered as a dud.
