Victor Wembanyama
2026–27 Season performance
Through November 7 of the 2026–27 season, he has played 10 games, averaging 29.1 points, 12.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists. High production in scoring, rebounding and rim protection makes him a central two-way presence. Support around him can improve the balance between efficiency and workload.
Updated 2026-11-10Career background
Wembanyama joined San Antonio as the first pick in 2023. The French big man played 71 games as a rookie and immediately produced at a substantial scoring and rebounding level. His early role was broader than a narrowly defined interior assignment, combining offensive finishing with major defensive responsibility. He was the unanimous 2024 Rookie of the Year.
In 2023–24, he played 71 games and averaged 21.4 points, 10.6 rebounds and 3.9 assists. A rookie season of double-figure scoring and rebounding gave him a different starting point from a player gradually searching for rotation minutes. His development needs to be considered across responsibilities rather than reduced to one striking number.
