The second friendly that the Metropolitans 92 played in Las Vegas vs. G-League Ignite, second chance to see Victor Wembanyama playing in an NBA-like environment. The French center, a likely first overall call-up to the 2023 Draft, replicated the monstrous performance he made two days ago, perhaps doing even better. In the end, Wembanyama scored. 36 points with 11 rebounds, adding 4 assists and 4 stoppages with +26 plus/minus.
The French club won 112-106, with Wembanyama still showing off his entire repertoire. From 9-meter triples to defending the pitturato to running in transition. The NBA is already in love with him, in the past few hours LeBron James had called him a \”an alien.\”, while an anonymous GM predicted unseen tanking to get the talented Frenchman.
