Re: Victor Wembanyama has GOAT Potential
Just wait til he adds 40-50 pounds over the next half-decade. AD went from 210 to 253-260 pounds. Giannis went from 190-200 to 250 pounds.

Re: Victor Wembanyama has GOAT Potential
He might, but if you put Bol Bol in the french league, he looks better than this.
This isn't the Euroleague.
Wemba leads in points, leading these guys:
Victor Wembanyama 22.1
Ronald March, Jr. 19.9
Marcus Keene 19.4
Matt Morgan 19.1
Markis McDuffie 17.8
Of course he has huge potential, but keep in mind Luka was leading and winning the Euroleague at 17 against the actual serious competition.
His trajectory looks to be more like Porzingis/Giannis.

Wait until he puts on some muscle and you start posting pictures upon pictures of him to prove he’s juicing.

Better pray he doesn't become injury prone.

Re: Victor Wembanyama has GOAT Potential
Yeah, he has GOAT potential, but so do/did a number of players. Lebron, Kobe, Giannis, Luka, KD all had GOAT potential, but none of them lived up to it. We'll see if Wembanyama does. It would be cool if he does.

Such a weird post. "Giannis, Luka, & KD had GOAT potential, none lived up to it".
I've never seen anyone say these players had GOAT potential, to act like they fell short based off something that was never even applied to them is funny. And not to mention Luka is only 23.

LeBron has set such a high bar, i cant see anyone reaching that.

Re: Victor Wembanyama has GOAT Potential
And he will waste away on the Pistons. It's clear as day that David Stern needs to rig the draft again and get this man on the Knicks.

So God can punish the Knicks by giving the kid bum knees and ensuring no championship for another 30 years?

Euros rule NBA, UMAD?
Re: Victor Wembanyama has GOAT Potential
There's alot that goes into 'GOAT potential' beyond skills/talent. Circumstances, consistency, resilience, some sliver of luck, good health..... 'we'll see' is where I'm at( which is where I'm at with guys who've already proven their mettle against NBA competition).

Bol Bol is way to slow(awkward) for Euroleague, and his transition dunks(layups) not gonna work in Euroleague aswell

These players are top 20 and/or have potential to get in and climb up the rankings. That's not unfullfilled potential. Wiggins is.

I wouldn't call it falling short. It's a compliment. They showed the skill to potentially be the GOAT. 99% of players that have the skill will still never make it to the top.
And yes, Luka is still young, so his GOAT ship hasn't sailed yet, but I'd give lower odds of it than I would have a couple years ago.
