The regular season is over and it's time to take stock, before moving on to the playoffs next weekend. The NBA thus communicated on the ranking of the players who have accumulated the most views on their social networks. And Victor Wembanyama is on the podium!
From his first season in the NBA, the Frenchman has posted 1.3 billion views and this is the third highest total, behind two legends and two undeniable stars of the league: LeBron James (1.9 billion) and Stephen Curry (1.7).
The second most popular action for “Wemby”
Behind this trio, we find Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving (1.2 billion and 662 million views), then Nikola Jokic, Anthony Edwards, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jayson Tatum and Kevin Durant.
Victor Wembanyama notably made a splash with his dunk against the Celtics. With more than 247 million views, it is the second most popular action of the season ahead of Curry's arabesques and behind an action by the Mavericks with the Doncic – Irving duo (250 million).
If he believes he was only at “15% of his abilities”, the Spurs player, for his first season, has in any case already become an NBA star.
