Victor Wembanyama 2023-24 NBA Fantasy Basketball Projections

Prized rookie Wembanyama is expected to create a big ripple in his first season in the NBA. So, Fantasy Basketball League managers should consider him as a viable option to select in the earlier rounds of the draft.

At 7-foot-4, the 19-year-old French phenom uncannily possesses both height and agility, which he makes good use of on both ends. He is likely to be the focal point of the San Antonio Spurs’ attack in the about-to-start season and beyond.

ESPN projected Wembanyama to be good for 19.9 points, 9.5 rebounds and 2.4 blocks in his first year. Certainly, these are numbers that should help any fantasy team that would have him in its fold.
