Larry Nance Jr. on Chet-Wemby comparisons: “Those 2 being compared to each other is just silly. I get it, they’re both similarish build, similarish playstyle, similarish in terms of their draft class. It’s not fair to either one of them because they’re both incredible players.” – 4:52 PM

League sources have told NBC Sports not to bet on that happening, as San Antonio doesn’t see Young as a fit with Wembanyama going forward. The Spurs might be more interested in the Hawks’ Dejounte Murray if he is available. -via NBC Sports / April 22, 2024
Victor Wembanyama said last month that his friend and fellow Frenchman Rudy Gobert would be a worthy winner of the 2023-24 NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award. But Wembanyama also added that, in future seasons, he, and not Gobert, would be the front-runner. Their NBA peers, however, feel Wembanyama’s time has already arrived. Players voted the towering Spurs rookie as the league’s best defender right now. Wembanyama led the league in blocks, averaging 3.58 per game. His next closest competitor, Utah’s Walker Kessler, recorded 2.41 blocks per game. -via The Athletic / April 22, 2024
Andrew Lopez: Not only is Victor Wembanyama a finalist for the Rookie of the Year, he’s also one of the three finalists for Defensive Player of the Year. With positionless voting this year, Wembanyama could become the first rookie in NBA history to make first team All-Defense. -via Twitter @_Andrew_Lopez / April 21, 2024
