That’s literally what Vic said. He wants to get stronger he just doesn’t want to add a lot of weight. If he adds strength weight will come but weight isn’t focus. They arguing something he said he already wants to do it.
Fired her, so tired of hearing her.
This Wemby weight conversation is so pointless. Regardless of whether Wemby and his agent want to “bulk up” or simply just get “stronger and more stable”, we’ll see the same result. He’ll be heavier a year from now then he is today. The only way to get stronger is to eat more as a result, lift heavier.
Malika the world hates you,thanks
All the people that espn has fired and she's still at espn 😢
my channel has zion doing extremely well in san antonio with pop and wemby both doing wieght management together same time different programs same focus different spots will pair well
“He doesn’t have to get big, he needs to get stronger.” – R. Jefferson
Literally the quote from the agent: “We focus on strength, core.” ESPN has the worst basketball analyst now.
I truly don’t know what’s worst, Molly’s take or Malika. I dislike Malika more!
Ok i like perkins a little more after his admittance here.. 😂
Any bad instancing from his past you want to bring up Malika? How do you still have a job????
Shut up Malika
Kareem also put on some weight and strength in his legs to prevent people from pushing him around in the post…
Victor is being lazy when it comes to the lifting/ sort of like zion and his weight issues! = Mentality
3 centers, when 1 think he Steph, 1 is undersized at 6‘9, and 1 has a worse offensive package than 5 year olds, is not gonna work. KAT must be getting high all summer
KD been in the league how long now!?! He ain’t bout big as a slurpee straw
I think what his agent means is that he is not going to necessarily "bulk" up. You CAN be stronger without putting so much more weight if you are training for strength which Victor's party is saying. The quote literally is saying he will be more focused on strength. Of course that might result in some weight gain but the main focus is NOT becoming like Shaq all sudden. Comparison between Rudy, Giannis and Vic is not too relevant as they all play different style. Rudy does not have any jumper and Giannis plays more physical. Victor does not play like either of them so I am not sure why people keep saying he needs to get bigger.
Malika how are you ginna talk about a mans body . double standard is crazy
Fire her already
Hard to believe KD lifts weights
Wembanyama is only 19. He isn't fully matured yet. His metabolism probably burns fat faster than he can put it on. He'll fill out with age, the weight room and diet.
Time for the Sky Hook to make a comeback.
Fire Malika
Malika needs to go
U get bigger when u get stronger
The goat on and off the court
Garnett was muscular not skinny at all
4:05 is television gold
Dear ESPN,
WHY IS RACIST KENDRICK PERKINS STILL EMPLOYED AT YOUR COMPANY?
4:19 gahdamn I can’t stand that bit but I’ll surely skeet on her face 🥵
We miss Rachel Nichols.
So you don’t want him to be built like Kareem? Kareem who won multiple championships, MVP’s and was durable enough to play until he was 41? Yeah makes total sense.
HIS TEAM IS AHEAD OF THE GAME. HES THE FACE OF THE NBA. THESE TAKING HEADS SHOULD ALL BE FIRED. WEMBY IS KAREEM! THE SECOND GREATEST PLAYERS EVER.
Perk on point
Marika 👎
225lbs at 7'3 is INSANE. He could put on 20lbs of muscle mass and STILL be skinny af.
