Victor Wembanyama isn’t just making headlines; he’s redefining the game itself. When even veteran NBA players run out of descriptors for a player, you know that talent is on a different tier. The San Antonio Spurs’ rising star showcases an extraordinary combination of size, skill, and defensive disruption that the league rarely witnesses.
His statistics tell a compelling story. As of March 15, 2026, Wembanyama boasts averages of 24.3 points, 11.1 rebounds, and leads the NBA with 3.02 blocks per game, while maintaining over 50 percent shooting from the field and 36.5 percent from beyond the arc. This two-way dominance has propelled the Spurs to the No. 2 seed in the competitive Western Conference.
The buzz surrounding Wembanyama intensified when Draymond Green addressed comments made by Jaylen Brown during a Twitch livestream. Brown humorously claimed he is the best “human” two-way player, signifying that Wembanyama resides in a realm of his own. On “The Draymond Green Show,” Green echoed Brown’s sentiment, stating,
“Wemby is this otherworldly thing man. Like, I’m not even going to say otherworldly person, he is just this otherworldly thing and everything that he does is going to take you like four people to do. Like, he is that special of a player.”

This level of praise from a former Defensive Player of the Year highlights the unique impact Wembanyama is making on the court, further solidifying his reputation.
Draymond Green Says Money Will Keep the NBA’s 82-Game Format Intact
Green also weighed in on the possibility of shortening the NBA schedule, agreeing with Steve Kerr’s thoughts on the topic. However, he’s skeptical about it happening anytime soon. On March 13, 2026, the seasoned Golden State Warriors player acknowledged the toll that modern gameplay takes on athletes but noted the economic realities involved.
At 36 years old, Green is keenly aware that the current pace of the game demands more from players than ever before. He articulated that this intensity makes the traditional 82-game schedule increasingly challenging. But he remained pragmatic about the financial implications, stating:
“No one is taking less money.”
In Green’s view, as long as teams’ revenue is linked to the number of games played, a reduction in the NBA season seems unlikely. The intersection of player performance, game speed, and financial incentives will continue to shape league decisions.
