Giannis Antetokounmpo came away impressed after his first matchup with Victor Wembanyama. Antetokounmpo’s Bucks beat Wembanyama’s Spurs, but the rookie made an impression on the veteran superstar.
“He’s special,” Antetokounmpo said about Wembanyama. “He’s going to be an extremely good player. He plays the right way. He plays to win. I’ve never seen anything like him.”
The Spurs rookie said Antetokounmpo was one of the players he watched most growing up. Wembanyama also relished going against the Bucks star.
“It’s always extra motivation, and I know I’m a competitor,” Wembanyama said. “So I want to go at everyone and be the bad guy on the court. So it was a great matchup.”
