Victor Wembanyama came into the league as the most hyped draft prospect since LeBron James in 2003. Six games into his rookie season, Wembanyama hasn’t disappointed. He is exactly like he was advertised; a seven-footer with handles, silky jumpers, and a defensive anchor. His presence has helped the Spurs immensely, as they have won three games out of six. With more experience under his belt, Wembanyama will become one of the best players in the NBA.

Despite Wembanyama’s extraordinary talent, the Spurs couldn’t secure a victory against the Raptors, losing the game 116-123 in overtime. In the post-match press conference, Wembanyama expressed his feelings regarding the match.

The aftermath of the Spurs loss to Toronto

Victor Wembanyama has adapted to the NBA seamlessly. Except for his debut against the Mavericks, Victor has looked comfortable going head-to-head with the NBA’s stars. The Spurs finished in 15th place last season, with 22 wins and 60 losses. But with Wemby’s arrival, they have already won three games from six outings. However, the Spurs lost to the Raptors in a closely contested game, which ended in an overtime victory for Toronto.

The last time the two teams played against each other at the Frost Bank Center, the Raptors had humiliated the Spurs. The Raptors delivered one of the most significant defeats in Coach Pop’s tenure as the Spurs’ head coach, winning by a margin of 43 points.
