RAS score takes all that into account for the NFL Combine.
Wemby athletic profile from watching him is
32 to 34 inch vertical which is not elite. It's likely average to below average for NBA standards
Strength - I doubt he could get 225 off the bar 5 times. He doesn't play strong either.
Agility is great for someone HIS size. As good as we've ever seen, but he's not more agile than people in the 6'10 range like Bam. There are plenty and plenty of players more agile than him.
Speed is excellent due to his stride length.
Quickness is great.
Overall his chart would have great peaks but a couple low to average values as well.
Michael Jordan's RAS would be too notch in everything. Even strength, I remember Horry talking about how strong he was and it surprised him. Anthony Edwards would have a similar web. Lebron obviously would have that too.
Shaqs RAS score would be the best of all time because he was doing that at 300+ pounds. Orlando Shaq.

Not sure vertical is too inportant for him. Hes probably better off staying on The ground for the most part

Athleticism is basically being able to apply extreme violent force either towards the ground to propel yourself forward or sideways or upward or against an opponent directly. Wemby is mostly shooting over the top or catching lobs he doesn't even have to jump for. Hes in a different category. Its skill and length. Super Durant.

It's important when talking about athleticism.
Not important when talking about Wemby the basketball player. Although having a 40+ inch vert would put his head a foot above rim level consistently which would be scary on any lob or finish in traffic.

Apparently he’s 7’5” without shoes now. His wingspan could easily be something stupid like 8’4”.
If you are coordinated with those measurements you are an insane athlete.

Full Court is an insecure dimwit that's always been a narcissistic homosexual in ISH
I suppose he's not going to be injury prone anymore this time around.

Wembanyama's not even close to the most athletic player in league history. Not top ten.
But Axe is unquestionably the biggest loser in history. 
Stinky biatch.

At almost 87 years old, Tom Meschery is the last survivor of the 1961-1962 Warriors. It was during this unbridled season that his teammate and friend, Wilt Chamberlain (50.4 points and 25.7 rebounds on average alone that year), achieved the greatest offensive performance in NBA history by scoring 100 points against the Knicks on March 2, 1962, in Hershey. In the new story of L'Équipe explores, which tells the last secrets of this anthology performance, Meschery, very close to Chamberlain, reveals that the pivot not only suffered from back pain that evening, but also had a hangover. "He often told me that he had partied all night the day before the 100-point game, that he had gone home at eight in the morning," says Meschery. "Wilt was the king of exaggeration, but on this, I believe him. He was able to dance until the early hours, sleep for an hour, and then score 50 points. He only ate hot dogs and burgers, but he was never out of shape. He was a phenomenon."

Genetics are crazy. Wilt had GOAT tier. A God life human existence you have to wonder what constellation he spawned from.
