Victor Wembanyama Reacts to First NBA Game in Los Angeles vs. Clippers
Victor Wembanyama is set to play his first NBA game in Los Angeles on Sunday when the San Antonio Spurs take on the LA Clippers. Speaking with reporters after Friday night's win over the Houston Rockets, Wembanyama was asked about playing in Los Angeles for the first time, and said, "I've been to LA before once. One of my favorite cities in the states. Historical city for many things and for basketball, so I'm really looking forward to it. For me, every week is going to be a crazy new opponent."
As Wembanyama said, each game for a rookie is a new experience they've never had before, especially on the road. Heading to LA to face the Clippers on Sunday, Wembanyama will get his first taste of Crypto.com Arena, formerly known as Staples Center, which has been home to several iconic NBA moments and players.
The Clippers will have their hands full with the rookie phenom, as Wembanyama has already shown a real feel for the game at his young age. Impacting the game at a very high level on both ends, Wembanyama will look to lead his Spurs to another victory when they take on the championship hopeful Clippers.
The Clippers and Spurs have both split their first two games and should give fans a fun one in Downtown Los Angeles on Sunday night.
