When the San Antonio Spurs drafted Victor Wembanyama first overall in the 2023 NBA Draft, their timeline immediately shifted. Instead of being five years away from competing, the Spurs immediately became relevant again and can chase a title as soon as their young star is ready.

Victor Wembanyama #1 of the San Antonio Spurs poses for a jersey swap with a fan after the game against the Brooklyn Nets on December 27, 2024 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama isn't happy about seeing the jersey he gave to a young fan end up on an resale website.
