The River Walk is set to welcome Victor Wembanyama. The Spurs have their central building block, writes Sam_Vecenie. Now the question becomes how San Antonio will build around him.
) to reach those thresholds in the last two seasons, all of the other 16 players made an All-Star team.Sochan’s a versatile defender, too, with real switchability and length. The big question is how well he performs as a scorer because his jump shot is still being reworked mechanically.
