Nothing brings an NBA team closer together and builds more chemistry than having a young white dude come in and sort of unexpectedly be able to ball on offense. Dead serious.



He's the best shooter on the team right now. And i love how later he almost dunked ended up with a layup. Fun to see him shining out there.

Obviously he's got time on his side though.


You should probably watch him more. Dude just averaged 29-10-5 with a ridiculous 4.4 BLK in December. I don't see the point in even comparing him to someone like Porzingis.

My favorite was when Giannis started a drive from the wing, threw a behind the back pass to Green in the corner, Green then jab stepped Wemby and shot it over him. Fearless.

Hence why he described him as rich man's Porzingas. We all agree Wemby is awesome, but I think Emunney is suggesting that Wemby isn't some future slashing wing. I'm there with that. Wemby is agile, but he has no suddenness or explosion at all. He couldn't get around Khris Middleton.

I don't like watching him, I find it incredibly frustrating, so no, I don't think I will.

The only thing that could make it better is if he was from Duke. :D
