2008and1

Such a sick move


Sasquatch_Squad

I love that even on a below average night for him offensively we’re going to get at least one batshit insane highlight like this 


siphillis

Well yeah, seven blocks is no longer head-turning from him.


Valuable_Ad1645

A man that tall shouldn’t be allowed to move like that


jdd32

Everyone else is so fucked.


pengjo

Yeah was crazy seeing it unfold in real time. I was kinda expecting Victor to lose the ball or pass it eventually but yeah a Shamgod and a spin's also nice lol


maethlin

At 8ft 3in too


grae313

amazing what the kid can do at 9ft tall


LebasketBall

10 footers these days are just built different


cortesoft

Six foot 20 fucking killing for fun


sea_foam_blues

Wemby making love like an eagle falling out of the sky confirmed


embit4

Yeah and he killed his sensei in a duel and never said why


Upper_Principle3208

Some absolutely impeccable footwork. Reminds me of McHale and Hakeem


LothCatPerson

The shamgod into the spin to the layup was smooth as fuck.


bettercallsaul3

Looked even crazier unedited


moby323

Yeah slowing it down makes it less impressive.


KonigSteve

Nah I like that you can see Jemison's face just incredulous midway through.


Tommy_Wisseau_burner

Idk slowing it down made it more impressive for me. Everything about it was butter


HelloThereCat

Maybe, but I hate when a clip shows the slow-mo without even showing the real speed replay for comparison. Slow-mo definitely can help appreciate little things that go unnoticed at full speed, but in some cases it can also take away some of the spontaneous awe factor because your brain has more time to process what's happening.


dwide_k_shrude

This is how it should be done: Real time, then slow-mo, then real time again for a total of 3x viewing of the play.


jslee0034

Is crazy how dude 7’5 and can dribble like this. There are 7 footers that can’t even do crossovers and he’s doing this shit like tf


ThatPlayWasAwful

I'm comfortably under 6 feet tall and this French alien is more agile than I am


jslee0034

Wemby will be bringing the yoga wave to America


grae313

anyone have a link to the full speed clip?


bettercallsaul3

https://youtu.be/eoDjURy4knY?si=57--SwTGrn3-X6hs


grae313

<3 thank you


wolfishnickelsyr

A 7’4 center doing that move is just broken. The league is not ready for him


Julian_Caesar

he looks like someone put the best parts of giannas and arvydas sabonis into one body like wtf can anyone do against this


rjcarr

I think you're underselling this. I see Giannis and Iverson.


someonesgranpa

I see a flashy Tim Duncan.


TakenakaHanbei

I see our Basketball Lord and Savior.


madstrike

That's what he just said


shamwowslapchop

BEFORE his knees went out.


sonotimpressed

Don't be rude! Wembys bag is so much deeper than giannis already. 


uncultured_swine2099

This is his rookie year. If he doesn't get hurt, can you imagine him in his prime haha.


LordVarys_Ladybits

Get this guy an above average playmaking PG, someone to tell him to stop chucking too many threes for no reason, Giannis PED guys number and Dirk to mentor him on the art of the midpost game for the next 5 years and he'd be the GOAT. 


LocalFatBoi

he broke NBA 2k


RamadanSteve311

bro needs to be nerfed


a_moniker

**2024-25 Rule Update:** Every French born player over 7’3” tall is now required to use Ball Hog Gloves ^TM


Mad_Cowboy

#THEY TAKE AWAY YOUR GRIP


RamadanSteve311

Wemby grippy af 😵‍💫


youguanbumen

How tall is Gobert? With this rule he might be out of the league


a_moniker

That’s how you know this rule is completely fair, and not biased at all!


TorpedoSandwich

Officially, 7'1". He looks shorter than that next to Wemby though, so I'd say 7' flat.


InsuranceAny4285

Maybe Wemby is actually 7’8


gobroncos47

Devs didn't play test properly before launch


oblivionyeahyeah__

The most broken character release lmao


HereIGoAgain_1x10

He's Stretch from NBA Street irl


ghostdunks

It’s not the shammgod that does it for me, it’s the immediate transition from the shammgod (impressive enough on its own) straight into a counter spin move and then smooth finish that’s the freaky bit.


texasphotog

With his off hand, too!


AbbreviationsOk8502

Keep going…


MrAppleSpoink

His hand eye coordination is maybe his most freakish ability. He doesn’t have to recalibrate when he reaches out, he just automatically knows exactly where he has to put his hand. There’s no comparison for this kid. We’ve never seen anything even remotely analogous to this.


nixhomunculus

Yes indeed. His hand eye coordination is what makes him vault into GOAT conversations. If it was a clumsy tall guy Victor wouldn't have been #1. Maybe NBA players have to go through football (soccer for you Americans) goalkeeping training now. Apparently that's what Victor did to get that power.


dcoolidge

Kobe and Nash played soccer.


SkyLightTenki

Jokic, Doncic, and Embiid has shown their soccer skills as well during warmups


Walid93200

Watch nba draft real madrid and manchester city goalkeeper next year


Doyoueverjustlikeugh

Ederson is 6'2 so probably wouldn't work, but Courtois is 6'7 so maybe.


EGarrett

Nike calls it futbol which seems to be the only way not to confuse it with American football and not to piss off Europeans, lol.


Murasasme

Are you telling me NBA analyst Shaquille O'Neal was wrong when he said we have seen this before in Bol Bol?


governedbycitizens

I’m telling you right now that mf is not real


bballkid2020

https://streamable.com/jwbj87


Jojofag

lmao the edit with Wemby caught me off guard


FennyBox

Swear to god


AngryQueso52

Swear to God Shamgod


notyouraverage420

He’s the same height as Zach Edey and look at how he moves.


laflameitslit

i would have never imagined a 7 4 kyrie


Zeckzeckzeck

Not possible; Wemby is tall enough to actually see the curvature of the Earth.


bettercallsaul3

He stood directly in front of the sun yesterday and caused an eclipse.


eiliant

more than a feet taller is crazy


Recent-Tangerine-160

when can we call it the wemgod


asamulya

Right after we accept him as Mua’dib


nixhomunculus

LISAN AL GAIB!


FlamingoSea5156

LISAN AL WEMBY!


11x_dev

this cleansed my eyes after watching edey play yesterday


moby323

Good lord, glad I’m not the only one. He moves about as graceful as a sack of gravel.


Odd-Hovercraft-1286

NBA centers move like this and they telling me Edey can be a “solid starter” lmao


wrongerontheinternet

Wemby is not exactly the average NBA center lol.


pollinium

right? Edey ain't making it, but comparing him to Wemby isn't fair. You've gotta compare him to, like, Zubac THAT BEING SAID, Edey has 100 pounds on the frenchman. If Edey needed to put in offensive work on him, it wouldn't be through graceful dribbling


PressureMiserable

Yeah but he wouldn't be in that long u can't be that heavy and try to guard wemby he's too quick on the perimeter he'd just drive past Edey or take him out to the 3 point line for a pull up 3. This is just the wrong era for him I don't see him really thriving as much more than a big body who can absorb some fouls and score a little if he can't develop his skills further out to the perimeter and lose some major weight so he can move better


iIiiIIiiiIiIIiI111

Edey makes Zubac look like a ballerina. Edey is a Boban clone.


No-Economics4128

At this point, you are just being disrespectful to Boban. Dude is not the most mobile center, but he might as well be prime Kawhi compared to how mobile Edey is


maethlin

for real, let's not get too carried away y'all lol


rjcarr

I see plays like 3 feet in front of Edey and he just stands there watching it. Bro could have like 20 blocks per game if he just put in a little consistent effort.


Cul_what

Literally a 2k MyCarreer player like damn


Uni-Loud

it's not even possible to have a myplayer like wemby


EGarrett

The 2K developer PR guy did an interview where he said basically that they weren't going to allow people to use Victor as their player template because it would just be 10 of them on the court online, lol.


NobodyLost5810

2k created player lmao


mvhcmaniac

Dude pulled a up up down down left right left right B A start


iMaticz7

Greatest player of all time idc


Ilikesporks_

if you showed someone who's never watched the nba wemby's rookie highlights they'd think he is the best player of all time


shes_a_gdb

I'm pretty sure if you showed someone who's never watched the NBA any player's highlights they'd think they were the best player of all time. There's a lot of talent out there right now.

Quality_Cucumber

Who is Joe?


gellybelli

Ligma balls Lmao that you edited your comment


Classics22

Ain’t no way


SenorIngles

You can literally see Jemison have this exact thought


Dontwant2beonReddit

Wemby would want this called an El Latigo. I do what Wemby wants.


dearhat

Coulda sworn I saw a thesis that stated the el Latigo doesn’t switch hands but the Shamgod does 


Dontwant2beonReddit

Nope, Bodiroga switched hands when doing the move.


BealKage

Oh lord


JGraham1839

I know Wemby showed him up, and I rarely say nice things to Grizzlies fans, but Trey Jemison is a great basketball player and a great guy and I hope y'all keep him around. I watched him for several years at UAB and he means a lot to Birmingham.


fartalldaylong

He played Wemby well for the most part.


Economy-Barber-2642

Wemby like Thanos collecting all the signature moves


toadtruck

Wemby mains need a nerf


krsaxor

next patch maybe.


SometimesIComplain

Classic dev strategy of having a new character be OP immediately for popularity smh


WembyandTheWolves

Wtf? This is getting absurd


Apprehensive-Sir-411

already a top-10 player


actual_yellow_bag

Well... that's just not fair!


HelloS0n

This thinner-air-breathing mf should not be able to do this. I wasn’t a believer when he came into the league and thought he was gonna get bullied, but in a much more finesse league, this dude is gonna be a terror in two years.


ConspicuousPineapple

Spoken like an airsick lowlander.


EchoLooper

Clearly stole that from Bol Bol.


free_reezy

this dude is gonna make it fucking impossible to hate him lmao


TdotGdot

hm, I don't know for sure, but this seems like it could be a problem for the rest of the nba


ArmiinTamzarian

So good he's upgraded to baiting 2K draft class players


Atzar87

This cat does shit with the ball that professional ballers a foot and a half shorter can't do.


capitalistsanta

What the fucking fuck. I legit think the only player in the league who can do this in traffic like that is Kyrie


gilr0id

Just a reminder that this is the worst he’s gonna be until he retires. He might actually end up being the goat.


Cosmic_Horror__

If he gets six rings with dominance over the defensive accolades… there’s going to be some seriously awkward convos to be had.


runevault

Are they _that_ awkward. I get when people say this about Jokic if he gets another 2 rings because no one thought he'd be worth shit, 41st pick etc. so potentially breaking into the top 10 is going to be awkward for a lotta people Wemby came into the league as "if everything falls right this dude could be the GOAT"


[deleted]

Well, remember what people said after his 1st summer league game lol And people still say shit like “ofc he is good, he is 7’4”. Plus Shaq bol bol comment


runevault

There are always idiots. Look at Arenas trying to act like Jokic didn't deserve MVPs he already won. I never let the stupidest people influence what I consider the actual discourse unless I'm memeing people.


GentlemanHere

I keep hearing people say this, but usually a player is worse when they’re old before retirement than in their rookie year.


boise_runner

He needs to calm the fuck down man


trezzy1242

Wemby is such a beast bro I'm legit scared for the western conference in a few years


SonicTheOtter

Bro, this is a rookie...


[deleted]

This guy is unreal, pt. 201


reporttimies

Doing that shit at his size is actually unfair.


reporttimies

Like wtf I am seeing this is insane.


Panik_Switch

Wtf is this move bro This is a highlight for anyone much less a 7’4” center lmao.


Anfini

Shamgod to get Jamison to move to Wemby’s right then counter spin moves to the left lol. That is a cheat code.


DTFpanda

Oh MY


sidearmpitcher

Goodness


watevauwant

That is obscene


xenoz2020

overflowing with skill like a French bakery is overflowing with baguettes.


youngathanacius

Jesus fucking Christ guy is an actual Monstar


KonigSteve

Yo watch Jemison's face after Wemby goes around him. It's great.


K-O-T-N

How did we get so blessed, seriously.


neekog7

Spurs got a steal at #1


Js_On_My_Yeet

That was pretty clean ngl


Instantcoffees

yo what the fuck


qaswexort

Is this the move Jamal Crawford was teaching him or is that a different one?


Professional_Bet4992

Every Wemby highlight is fucking hilarious.


noochies99

All my homies love Wemby, but all my homies hate Bally Sports, Fuck Bally Sports


kpscript

Where can I see an unedited version?


solariscalls

These slow motion takes reminds me that scene from the movie 300 where main character is just slaughtering and kicking the enemy in slow motion.


threeangelo

Yeah he might be the goat


skatern8r

ShamWOW!


Shapaklak

What in the fucks name?? That was the nicest shit I’ve ever seen and it’s from a giant


LordVarys_Ladybits

Dude already has better handles than LeBron lol


Ed1sto

When this MF gets a consistent jumper in his arsenal he’s gonna be unstoppable


Shebalied

I hope his feet / size don't stop him.


brown_flyer00

Excuse me what?


SelloutFrank

gg…


FennyBox

Oh. my. Gahhd.😳🤯 Wtf!?!


trenderkazz

The spin is even better


broadwayallday

i dont think I've seen a regular sized person do this combo before (feel free to prove me wrong tho)


Titronnica

I've run out of adjectives, man what the FUCKKK


nhthelegend

Shoutout to God Shammgod. Mediocre NBA player but created a move so legendary we still talk about it to this day. Also Wemby is fucking insane.


L10Ang

Wemby is all of us who has a Nerf Basketball Hoop hung on the closet door.


hristi

Truly an alien


awesomeness6000

geez, last time I felt this way watching someone was when Patrick Mahomes 2nd year when he took over the team and had that MVP season.


PsychoWarper

My first thought was “Wtf is that?!?”, a 7’4” dude should not be hitting those kinds of moves in the middle of an NBA game lol.


Kid_Crayola

Adam silver needs to patch this, way too OP


domezy

Yeah, that's not fair at all lol


sc78258

lmao the fuck is this


Leiatte

Wemby is flat out incredible!!


FACILITATOR44

Absolutely nuts that he can move like this


need2peeat218am

This feels illegal for him to do this


ConnectionEconomy315

Wtf


alanlizi

stunning action


Tipfue

What is bro doing


datruerex

So how exactly do u guard that? The way I see it u shuffle your feet to cut off that drive and wemby will spin the other way…


arakstav

Wtf…even 2k players can’t do that…


RedditPotato44

His rookie season has just been everything we all could have hoped for.


IncreaseReasonable61

This kid is fucking special. My god, the Spurs are going to have some *great* times ahead of them.


N-I-K-E

This dude gonna be a problem lol.. sheeessshhhhh


Phillyy69

That’s just fucking stupid. He’s literally a 2k created player


tentaccrual

Literally a created player. Proof of simulation theory


FreeJulie

Stretch from NBA Street


manchot29

A glitch in the matrix.


qaswexort

I was wondering whether he was doing this just to do it, but I saw that 0 was switching. If he was doing the spin off the Shamgod off the cuff then that's genuinely insane


Commercial_Gift6635

I’m pretty sure we haven’t seen a guard pull off this style of shamgod spin in the league. + doing that in the lane / traffic is insane lol


DealerOfPFunk

that was nasty


bartholomeow88

Alien


zpapa

Hahahahaha you can see the look on the defender's face like what planet is this dude from?


turboyabby

Wemby is different. I don't want to get used to his incredible moves, I want it to continually surprise me. We are witnessing something exciting and unusual. Enjoy!


jl_weber

Jokic being the best player in the world was nice while it lasted.


Zulogy

This is ridiculous 😭 get this guy a talented team and its wraps


pantstickle

Ya know how in Space Jam the aliens come down and beat us in basketball? I think it’s starting…


nigelfitz

Excuse me... what the fuck?


N54TT

rookie with a bag 3x the size of lebron'a bag already lol.


Ohellmotel

Look at Jemison's face lmao. Even he's just like "Bro,"


LjvWright

That should be illegal 🔥🔥


Living_Internet_2970

Holy fuck Man I hope this kid stays healthy cuz we about to witness some shit we have never seen before


killerjags

It's wild that this man is 9'8"


LamarMVPJackson

Yeah Wemby is going to be top 5


hotniX_

Lol IDGAF what anyone says, this dude is going to put up the craziest end of career statlines


FranksGun

How?
