[Saba Sports News] Thomas Bryant, in the 99th percentile for height globally, found himself dwarfed by Victor Wembanyama during a recent NBA game. The San Antonio Spurs bested the Miami Heat 120-104, although it was just preseason. What stole the show were Wembanyama’s jaw-dropping plays.
In one third-quarter move, Wembanyama soared into the paint and delivered an emphatic dunk over Bryant. The Frenchman, with his impressive 8-foot wingspan, left Bryant in disbelief, and the video of Bryant’s relatable reaction quickly went viral.
Wembanyama lived up to his “alien” nickname with a dunk reminiscent of Michael Jordan’s iconic slam in the original “Space Jam” movie, all without the need for CGI.
Bryant, on the other hand, seemed to channel a character from “The Office” as he stared directly into the camera, as if to ask viewers if they had witnessed the unbelievable dunk.
Wembanyama’s exceptional quarter also featured a mind-boggling defensive play. He wrapped up the game with 23 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, and millions of views on his viral clips.
