WATCH: Seven-foot, four-inch tall Victor Wembanyama rises to swat away Steph Curry’s shot

That the seven-foot, four-inch tall Victor Wembanyama would be a menace on the basketball court even in his rookie year for the San Antonio Spurs was predictable. But in the Warriors’ 118-112 victory over the Spurs in the NBA In Season tournament, he gave a glimpse of how formidable he can be. With the teams contending for each ball in the second quarter, Curry barged into the Spurs’ paint before releasing an easy layup. But just then, Wembanyama came out of nowhere to swat away the shot. The ball hit the backboard and fell into the hands of Spurs’ Jeremy Sochan who raced down the floor before feeding the ball to Doug McDermott, who nailed his three-pointer from outside the arc. ✅ Victor block✅ Doug threeeeee pic.twitter.com/v0UsMRnBUG — San Antonio Spurs (@spurs) November 25, 2023 ...
