Statisticians like Victor Vembanyama very well at the moment. After a triple-double with Counters in his rookie season, so it’s the 1,000-point stage that’s reached for the 20-year-old French pivot. What’s next?
Time flies. Barely 6 months ago, we were wondering if Vic would be able to live up to the immense expectations placed on him. After half a year, He is already at 1,000 points in just 49 NBA games.
1,000 points so quickly is clearly not trivial, especially when it’s done with such panache. 1,000 points of dunks without jumping, 1,000 points of alley-oops from anywhere and shots over the heads of tiny 2m14 defenders. This 1,000 points is over promised by many but let’s not get excited, we will – in any case – have plenty of opportunities to do so.

Against the Mavs, Victor needed just one half to get to his 20 points and finished with 26 points in 29 minutes. A classic at last… We are at 1,006 points for Wemby, yes we will count often because it is a joy to be French able to reach such heights. Come on, 39 times more than that and this will be in good LeBron James retro, “We wish you that anyway”.
