I'm Laker fan, but love Wemby's game, not a fan of him shooting so many 3's but is what it is.

To my knowledge Wemby's best game last season? was.
20 points, 15reb, 8ast, 9 blocks

For the poll

Will Wemby get the next quadruple double?





Also while I'm at It Happy Friday from Aus LOL.

I am voting No, it is way too hard to do.

I bet on it happening at 12-1 last season… then he got injured.

With the addition of Fox he'll get those extra asts. I just hope he stays healthy. Part of my predictions have Spurs moving up

I'm not a Gambler, but might think about it next season when I have some $$$ just like 10-20 a game or something

I mean if anyone can do it its him, 12-1 is a good bet if you bet just a couple bucks, but still. Just him getting 10 assists is rare, getting 10 blocks maybe even rarer, and he needs to do both in the same game, and he still needs to get double digit rebounds and points, which is still not given. The odds of that happening are just too small for me to vote yes.

Every time I check Spurs boxscores, first thing I look is steals and blocks for Victor tho, because I always anticipate for him to have 5x5.

He's already had two games each of double-digit blocks and assists, so he is more than capable. I wouldn't be surprised if he managed two or three quad-dubs in this career, but I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't next season because so much has to line up. And Fox will be eating his assists.

Possibly but to be honest I would not be surprised if some random player get that. A guard perhaps.

He's already gotten close a couple times with putrid teammates. Kid can pass and has great vision so I think it's much more likely to happen this season. He's already had more than one 10 block game. It's only a matter of time imo

A guard is never going to get 10 blocks. 10 steals is even more difficult

Okay, but my point is that some of these crazy stats are sometimes done by some of the most random players that are having a really good game.

I get what you're saying but a quad double is one of the rarest statistical achievements in the game and every single one has been recorded by a big man except Alvin Robertson. I guess it's possible but in today's league where smaller players (and players in general) play more out on the perimeter I just think it would be extremely difficult for a guard to ever hit 10 blocks

It has been done four times in league history, and you think he can do it multiple times?

He's as good a candidate as anybody, but let's see him do it once before we talk about him having as many as every NBA player in history combined.

Clyde Drexler actually got his 10 steals in this game. The Kevin Willis three in the box score was a last second shot. It's always steals or blocks, never both, and they're usually the stat the player comes up short in. Coming up short in assists would hurt. I threw you the ball that one time in third quarter and you blew the layup.

Jokic will do it before Wemby

tbf here, that's not really accurate at all. The only thing that likely kept Wilt from having like 20+ of these games on record is blocks not being an official stat back then. The main thing Wemby will need to get multiple quad doubles is having games where he plays 40+ minutes to have a realistic chance at it. Wilt was always playing 45-48mpg so it was easier for him to amass stats. Victor just needs some ot/2ot games where he plays 44+ minutes.

Not impossible he gets 10 steals though...

Jokic all time high in blocks is only 5, Wemby can get that in his sleep

If I had to bet on someone getting a quad-double this upcoming season, it would be Wemby.

He will do it with steals not blocks. One day.

Will he get the next playoff spot?
