WEMBY vs. GIANNIS LIVED UP TO EXPECTATIONS 👏 Bucks-Spurs RECAP | SportsCenter
This matchup delayed because Wy had the bum ankle back in December and I have to say it has lived up to expectations even if in the beginning Wy was a little slow I don’t care if it’s Milwaukee or the Sisters of the Poor I don’t care you got to play the right way
If you’re going to catch and shoot catch and shoot but don’t sit there and then shoot well he was one of five from the fields in the first quarter he’s not sitting there in the second quarter two Defenders throws it off the glass to himself awesome Spurs down
Four that’s what you can do and I feel like everyone just kind of watched it because they’re like okay Giannis extra pass Bobby poris Bobby gets denied by Wy so we’ve got the uh creative offense now we’ve got the defense next spur possession Yannis is like I can’t let
You do that without me also showing off Damen Lillard going to get involved as well there we go Giannis with the dunk Milwaukee had a comfortable lead we go to the third comfortable as in like at least a handful and you’re like oh it’s the bux LMI comes away with the
Steal Spurs down six after that three-point play got the foul eight minutes left in the third bucks up three Lillard Giannis going to fight through the double team over Wy we’re tied at 93 at the end of three how do we feel about the stink
Face I feel like it’s his it’s his look Giannis to Brook Lopez back to Giannis watch Giannis do this little up little under bucks up one teammate said this game was fun to watch it was fun to watch those two go back and forth Giannis attacking over W
Plus the foul bucks down two after the three-point play Then Giannis knocking down that triple again over Wy we tied at 118 still tied Lillard Giannis there were a lot of points for Giannis and when he is hitting threes like that that’s what’s going to happen Spurs down
Three a minute to play in the game wanyama burying his own triple game tied at 121 the Bucks also just lost to the Pacers and you’re like they can’t possibly lose this one Giannis is like no I’m going to put you on my back and then I’m going to
Throw it down with authority Bock led by three 30 seconds left that lead is still three yanx driving to the wiim it’s just him and Y no Spurs have a chance now to tie the game because there are just what 8 seconds left watch this Wy to a wide open Trey Jones Corner
Three no Giannis had 44 points and 14 rebounds you have wemi with 20 but the Bucks get the win 125 121 he’s special um he’s going to be extremely good player got got to stay healthy uh he plays the right way plays to win um I don’t know I’ve never seen
Anything like him 74 75 I don’t know how tall he is he’s not 73 he’s way older than 7 uh so whoever say he’s 73 that’s a lie uh but like at the end of day like you haven’t seen anything like like that you know I haven’t maybe you guys have
Seen I don’t think you guys have seen every so so the sky is the limit and as long as you work hard and he keep on having you know positive attitude energy towards the the game everything uh that he dreams of is going to happen for him
Somebody I grew up watching and uh one of the the greatest players in the world so it’s always uh extra motivation and and uh I know you know I’m a competitor so I’m I want to go at everyone and be be the bad guy on the court you know so
It’s a it was a great mat up along the lines of how competitive you are and and uh motivation anything have to do with the uh rookie of the month for the West was announced today Allstar voting came out today any of that tie into what we
Tonight of course of course you know uh I’m dedicated and I know at the end of the game at end of the day I’m going to get what I deserve and it’s you know every game is a statement for now I know I’m supposed to be telling
You about the numbers on this little graphic here but can we just take a minute and appreciate baby Giannis there on the left look at him it’s a baby the point of all of this is lby should not be so hard on himself because look at where Giannis was in his rookie season
He only started 23 games and he averaged under seven points per game Wy on the other hand is averaging nearly 20 point a 20 point double double in his first 30 games of his Career

Wemby ROY. Happy 20th birthday
If he stay healthy he would of been one of the greats oh srry jus got back from the future
The French are Jerks Expect that type of sportsmanship
Them Duke players just ain’t clutch. They lucky they get to claim kyrie 🤣
if giannis say he ain’t 7’3 imma believe him 😂
ROY
For 36 minutes Victor is averaging 23-13-4, 1.3 steels and 4 blocks per game. LeBron James as a rookie for 36 minutes averaged 19-5-5, 1.5 steels and 0.7 blocks. At the same juncture (6th Jan) Lebron was 10-24 and Wemby 5-28. Two generational talents
Yee
Giannis look like a shrimp next to wemby….that round the bacc dunk Wendy did is just a seamless move to the basket with no jump to slam it ridiculous the dude literally doesn't have to jump
Spurs are one or two players away from competing.
… Incredible duel… And VW just played 26 min.
he went at a fully grown toned up Giannis as a rookie.. he gone be an animal
This lady is terrible. 😅
TRUE ROY ❤❤❤❤❤
Real ROOKIE 💪 OF THE YEAR NBA!
Wemby = The Black Porzingis
Vote Wemby in the all stars
Spurs guards tryna earn a contract the way the ball hog because if wemby get more touches there record would not look like that
Now imgaine how amazing this highlight scene wouldve been with stu scott. Ik im comparing her to the Goat but liven up a littlem this game had crazy highlights and you skid right past them!
“I don’t care if we’re playing Milwaukee or the sisters of the poor” lol pop is gold
"Baby" Giannis was a raw talent. It makes 0 sense to compare Wemby , a player who has been brought up in the basketball court , with "Baby" Giannis who first touched a basketball at the age of 13.
The journalistic level of ESPN staff is below "ignorant".
Why do players put a compression sleeve on one specific arm?
Giannis playing and dominating on the 2nd night of a b2b is INSANE!!! Look at hownslow everyone else on the bucks looked! I think he couldve dropped 60 if he had 2 or 3 days rest !
If the Bulls had the #1 pick last year, they would have found a way to mess it up.
Have been watching him his entire LNB Season in France, he had the same evolution so far, good start in Autumn, Nov and Dec some struggles, then starts the new year and it 's progression game after game … next 6 months will be real interesting!
Viktor wembemyama is the worst nba player in history already. Seriosuly. He’s by far a bust.
I never thought i see a player that makes giannis look like a 6.4 player on the court.
Was a crazy game wemby next year will be more buff and better gas tank.
Best duel of the season, Giannis MVP wemby Rookie of the Year
They both really good 🔥🔥💯
Recency bias in effect.
Can’t wait to see him go against embiid
He rolled up that fruit like the french gumby. The freak was like, “I’ll be back!!”
Giannis won the match up. Good game wemby.
the play at 0:50 epitomizes how bad that team plays and everybody except Wemby just thinks about statpadding. easy pass and easy 2 turned into an easy block by Giannis and an easy 2 at the other end…
Wemby is playing with D League players
