The NBA postseason is in full swing and yesterday Cleveland Cavaliers’ big man Evan Mobley was named the NBA’s Defensive Player of the Year, but nothing seems to phase Victor Wembanyama.
It’s to be expected by the young player who showed poise last season when Rudy Gobert took the DPOY honors. These things don’t rattle the down-to-earth Frenchman. He just wants to win basketball games.
Hopefully the physical activity signifies good health on his recovery from the deep vain thrombosis that was discovered just after the All-Star Break this year.
