Unbelievable Spurs stat proves Victor Wembanyama has prestigious awards in reach

As training camp and preseason fast approach, San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama will soon have all eyes on him. He hasn't played a game in seven months, and there are lingering questions about how well he will play out of the gate.

Last season came to an early end for Wembanyama due to deep-vein thrombosis, which sapped his stamina before eventually sidelining him. However, some have already forgotten how great he looked prior to his diagnosis.

After a sluggish start to last season, Wembanyama posted a staggering 28.5 points, 10 rebounds, 4.8 assists, and 4.4 blocks per game and shot 37.
