“He really wants to be the best in the game,” said Elliott about the Spurs center.
SAN ANTONIO — San Antonio Spurs‘ Victor Wembanyama is on the path to becoming the face of the league.
With his incredible skill set and ability to dominate the court, he is undoubtedly on his way to becoming the best player in the NBA sooner rather than later.
But a lot also comes from his mentality and the desire to be the best.
Much like Hall of Famer Kobe Bryant says Sean Elliott.
Elliott joined SiriusXM NBA Radio to discuss what makes Wemby unique when he compared his mindset to the Lakers legend.
“If you have to ask a big man to leave the gym, that’s unheard of,” Elliott said. “I think he’s got a little bit of that Kobe mentality. Not even a little bit, but a lot. He really wants to be the best in the game. He has the hunger and the desire.”

That is high praise for the second-year pro, but it would not be surprising if he becomes the best.
He’s breaking records, recording triple-doubles, and is on course to amass countless awards in his career. What might also push him into the stratosphere is if and when he wins multiple NBA titles.
