I didn't think his shooting and playmaking would be this good so soon. He's like a big-ass Kevin Garnett out there!


- 35 games played
- 27.9 minutes per game
- 21.7 ppg, 10.5 rpg, 3.9 apg, 1.3 spg, 3.7 bpg
- 48.6% FG, 36.2% 3PT, 54.2% eFG, 81.2% FT, 58.9% TS

Check out the per 36 numbers:


- 28.0 ppg, 13.5 rpg, 5.0 apg, 1.7 spg, 4.8 bpg

His minutes are low. No one really keeps their rates the same when increasing minutes.

He's really good on defense but not THAT impressed with his offense to be honest.

I've been more impressed with him than Chet who I saw some in college too. Chet is better on paper right now. The thing that he does that I don't remember ever seeing anyone do is when he gets it a few feet from the basket with his back to it where a typical big would go for a jump hook or something. He'll just reach his arm back and dunk it with that incredible reach.

Yeah but he's playing 29mins a night. I doubt there's gonna be tangible dropoff in production pushing it another 4-5 minutes.

I think he'd be good for 25 ppg, 12 rpg, 4.5 apg, 1.5 spg, and 4.0 bpg if he played as many minutes as Anthony Davis - 35.8 mpg. That's an extra 7.9 minutes per game.

Eh he's good but I still think he's like borderline top 20.

Yeah, I project Wemby as a Garnett type player.

I don't think he'll ever be a natural 1st option scorer, not on the likes of Embiid, but he has really good intuition and feel for the game and is a willing passer. He can definitely be a team anchor on offense and defense, but he'll need an off ball guard to pair with, which is becoming more difficult to find these days.

That's a fair ranking. I've seen a media guy rank him as high as 15th right now, which may be too high. I think he'll make titanic jumps over the next two seasons as he becomes stronger, more powerful, improves his endurance and work capacity, and puts on quality size. Still, being a top-20 player as a rookie is nothing to scoff at.

The Spurs would be a lot better if he was a top 20 player

Regardless, he'd still have a chance to be a top player in the g-league anyway.

why would that terrify me? Can't do it forever. He's influenced a whole generation of players that are following in his huge footsteps.:bowdown:

Having a great game right now.

Half way through the third: 20/9/5/5 blocks 8-12, 2-3 from 3
