NBA World Couldn’t Believe How Victor Wembanyama Dwarfed David Robinson, Tim Duncan in Photo

Wemby towered over the Spurs legends in a now-viral photo.

Victor Wembanyama is receiving a warm welcome to the city of San Antonio. Just a couple of days after being drafted into the organization, some Spurs legends took the 19-year-old out for dinner. 

Among those at the dinner included iconic franchise stars such as David Robinson, Tim Duncan, Sean Elliott, and Manu Ginobili. A photo of the group has since gone viral, as it depicts Wembanyama towering over his cohorts, including the 7'1" Robinson.

The NBA world was in awe over the height disparity between the 2023 NBA draft’s No. 1 pick and the rest of the group, as the top of Robinson’s head barely reached Wembanyama’s nose. NBA fans and media took to Twitter with a plethora of reactions to the now-viral image.

like Wemby having direct access to Tim Duncan as a mentor has to be some form of PED, like this can’t be allowed https://t.co/fR3r5HybpZ

Glanced over this pic when I first saw it thinking it was just four other dudes. Somehow one of them is Robinson, one is Duncan, and it sure looks like the Spurs picked the right year to suck. https://t.co/BTkWFNuh61

The shortest person in this pic (Manu Ginobili) stands 6-6. These are massive human beings. https://t.co/p8f4cZSkWT

We need Tony Parker in there for a "normal person" height frame of reference.

These are all ridiculously tall people that look normal sized next to Wemby https://t.co/6TeVI4KU2i

Wembanyama is listed at 7'4", though this photo will surely have fans questioning whether or not he’s even taller than that. Either way, the French phenom looks ready to fill some big shoes in San Antonio.
