Hey everyone, it’s your boy back again with another deep dive into the world of basketball. Today, I was just chilling, scrolling through my phone, and a question popped into my head: “How old is Wemby?” Yeah, Victor Wembanyama, the dude who’s been making waves in the NBA. So, I got curious and decided to find out.
First off, I hit up the usual spots on the internet, just typing in “how old is wemby” into the search bar. You know, the casual search to see what pops up. I got a bunch of articles and stuff about this basketball prodigy, and I started to piece things together.
So, here’s what I found out about Wemby:
- I learned that this guy was a big deal even at 14, standing at a crazy 6 feet 10 inches. That’s taller than most grown men!
- Then, I read about how he’s the youngest player to lead the NBA in blocks, averaging 3.6 blocks per game. The record showed it happened on April 14, 2024, when he was 20 years and 101 days old. And get this, on May 6, 2024, he was named the 2024 NBA Rookie of the Year, and it was unanimous!
- I also dug into his injury history a bit. It’s got some stress fractures and muscle issues, nothing too crazy, but it’s there.
After going through all this, I finally got to the main point. I realized, and the articles confirmed, that he would turn 21 soon. It really took me a while to find out about his exact birthday date though.
So yeah, that’s my little adventure in finding out Wemby’s age. It turned into a whole exploration of his achievements and what makes him stand out. Hope you guys found this as interesting as I did!
Final Realization
After digging deeper, I came across a small detail, barely noticeable, mentioning that his birthday is on Saturday. That made things clearer, connecting the dots. So, Wemby is going to be 21 this coming Saturday! It’s pretty cool to follow his journey from a towering 14-year-old to an NBA star. That’s all for today’s blog post, folks. Catch you in the next one!
