30 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists and 7 hats!
Because the NBA league is all about offense and scoring, many young players only like to score and forget to practice defense. In the NBA league, there are more stars who are strong in offense and weak in defense, Lillard, Mitchell, Trae Young, Morant, but what is really popular is the stars who have both offense and defense. For example, Antetokounmpo has both the regular season MVP trophy and the Best Defensive Player trophy (DPOY), and is at the top of the league both offensively and defensively. Among the new stars of the younger generation, what are the supernovas that integrate offense and defense? 30 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, and 7 hats! The super champion show is crazy, and the most offensive and defensive new star in NBA history is born.
Who has the strongest talent and strength in the NBA league in the last five seasons?2018 Ayton, 2019 Zion Williams, 2020 Edwards, 2021 Cunningham, 2022 Banchero, 2023 Wembanyama. Before Wembanyama landed in the NBA, Zion Williams' basketball talent was blown to rival James and Jordan, which was a bit outrageous. Now, Spurs No. 1 wembanyama is on the rise, and his talent and potential may far surpass that of Zion Williams.
Wembanyama's static talent alone is very incomprehensible, with a height of 2.26 meters and an arm span of 2.44 meters, this height, this arm span, is the strongest existence in the entire NBA history. The most perverted thing is that Wembanyama's dynamic talent is also very strong, his running and jumping ability, speed, movement control ability, and projection ability are comparable to Durant, which is terrifying. When Wembanyama pulls up a jumper and leans back to shoot a three-pointer, the opponent can't block it at all because his height and reach are too advantageous. At the same time, Wembanyama's super height and reach, super reflexes and athleticism make it very easy for him to block opponents on the defensive end, and he can block many stars when he is standing.
Spurs reporters reported that Wembanyama has contributed an average of 24.5 points + 7.5 rebounds + 2.6 assists + 4.3 blocks per game in the last 4 games, shooting 53.6% from the field. The Spurs and the Trail Blazers played against each other, Wembanyama went crazy, slashing 30 points + 6 rebounds + 6 assists + 7 blocks, and the offensive and defensive ends were super full. The Spurs and the Bucks competed, and Wembanyama efficiently scored 27 points + 9 rebounds + 1 assist + 1 steal + 5 blocks. After the game, the Bucks coach and Antetokounmpo said that Wembanyama has incredible talent and that he seems to be capable of anything.
In the current NBA league, there are many stars with strong offensive scoring ability, but there are relatively few stars who integrate offense and defense like Brother Alphabet. Now, the Spurs are super champions, and Wembanyama has the talent and strength to attack and defend well. According to NBA statistics, Wembanyama averaged 3.2 blocks per game this season, the first in the league. In the first year of Wembanyama's career, he was the NBA league block king, and his ability to defend and block is really not covered. NBA experts from the American media directly wrote that Wembanyama is the most offensive and defensive superstar in NBA history, and his offensive and defensive talents can reach the top of the league at the same time in the future.
In fact, Popovich has recently let Wembanyama play with him, and Wembanyama's average playing time is only about 25 minutes per game, which is not much, which is why Popovich is worried that he will suffer an injury. The Spurs coaching staff has been very patient and slowly polishing young players, and the main task of the Spurs this season is to help young players such as Wembanyama improve. Popovich signed a five-year, $80 million contract extension with the Spurs in the offseason, and Wembanyama will always have Popovich's help and support in the future. Can the master-apprentice combination of Popovich and Wembanyama create the same spark as Duncan and Popovich?
