According to Kevin O’Connor of The Ringer, Robert Horry now believes Victor Wembanyama will be the next target after Luka Doncic was connected to the Los Angeles Lakers. The seven-time NBA champion said on the most recent “Big Shot Bob Podcast” that famous players often have ties to the Lakers, and the Spurs center is no exception.
The San Antonio Spurs selected Wembanyama first overall in the 2023 NBA draft, and he is anticipated to be the team’s leading player as we advance. His extraordinary ability on both ends of the floor is the reason for this. Horry highlighted one possibility that the big guy would be dissatisfied with his circumstances in San Antonio.
Horry said, “You always hear anybody that the next star … is always going to be connected to the Lakers. Now it’s Luka’s turn. At some point of time down the line, hell, it’s going to be Wemby. Give it two, three seasons especially if the Spurs aren’t doing anything or Wemby may not be ‘happy,’ you going to see his name connected to the Lakers.”
As LeBron James approaches the end of his NBA career, the Lakers wonder who will lead the team besides Anthony Davis. Thus, starting to build for the future with Luka Doncic would not be a terrible idea.
The Lakers may make a compelling move if they acquire Victor Wembanyama. However, it will be interesting to see what type of offer they need to put together. Who do you think will emerge as James’s successor? With 39-year-old LeBron, it’ll be a developing procedure over the next two years.
Luka Doncic Previously Praised Victor Wembanyama For His Stellar Performance Last Season
Luka Doncic has experience against some of the best players in the NBA. According to ESPN’s Tim MacMahon, it helped him recognize what he saw in Victor Wembanyama. His statement came after their matchup against the Spurs.
Doncic said, “It’s pretty crazy what he does on the court. No, the things he does for that length, it’s unbelievable the way he moves, handles the ball, shoots the ball, and the blocking. So, I’ve been watching, and he’s an amazing player.”
Although he still has space for development, Victor Wembanyama has the jump shot and low-post scoring going for him. In addition to his scoring prowess, he has established himself as one of the league’s top defenders. We’ll have to wait for next season to see if he can deliver the same.
