The San Antonio Spurs got themselves the most exciting prospect in NBA history.
Victor Wembanyama has a unique combination of size, handles, shooting, and shot-blocking, and some believe he’s poised to be the next basketball legend.
But as evident as his natural traits are, so is the need to tweak a couple of things here and there to thrive in the National Basketball Association.
Notably, he may have just started that transformation with something that’s not as important for his game but for his public persona, showcasing a new fresh haircut (via NBA Buzz).

Wembanyama will have to do a lot more than just get a new cut if he wants to make it in the NBA.
Some believe he’s got to bulk up and get heavier to be able to withstand the physicality of playing against NBA big men, while others believe that could only lead to injuries, so he should focus on strengthening the core and getting stronger overall instead.
Whatever the case, it’s evident that he’ll need to follow a thoroughly developed plan to make the most of his unique skill set without putting his body on the line.
There will always be concerns with guys as tall and lanky as him, and it seems like his health could be the only thing standing in his way in his rise to stardom.
Getting taller could only be a disservice to him, even if it also makes him all the more impressive.
Maybe that’s why he wanted to get a couple of inches off with that haircut.
