Report: The Spurs expect Victor Wembanyama to play in the Las Vegas Summer League

Projected top overall pick Victor Wembanyama’s final season in French League came to an came to an end last night after his Mets 92 team was swept in the Finals by Monaco despite him posting 22 points, 7 rebounds, and 4 blocks.

Now his focus will turn entirely to the NBA, so the next question after the Spurs draft him next week (because there is no question about that) will be when we will see him on the court again. The first possibility will be the opening of the of the California Summer League Classic on July 3 against the Charlotte Hornets, and while questions have swirled over whether or not Wemby will even play in the SL, respected NBA reporter Marc Stein, formerly of ESPN and the New York Times, has said in his latest sub stack (subscription required) that the Spurs do plan on him participating in some capacity in the Las Vegas Summer League.
