San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama drew plenty of eyes during the Fanatics Fest over the weekend, and for good reason.
With his towering 7-foot-3 height, it's hard to miss the young NBA star. After all, it's difficult to find someone taller than him at the event — even if it featured some of the best athletes in the world today.
On Saturday, Wembanyama was already trending online after he shared a moment with streamer Kai Cenat. Considering that the media personality stands at just 5-foot-3, the massive height difference between him and the Spurs center was immediately noticeable.
Sure enough, Wembanyama's incredible size remained a hot topic throughout the event. When he appeared on stage with LeBron James during a live taping of "The Shop," his height became the focus of attention once again.
After Wembanyama took a group photo alongside James, fans couldn't help but react to how small he made the 6-foot-9 Lakers forward look.
"Wemby so tall he make bron look 5’11," a commenter wrote. Another one said, "Bro LeBron comin up to Wemby’s shoulder is craazy to see!"
A fan added, "6'9" and still short. Wemby is a giant amongst men." A fourth follower echoed a similar sentiment, noting, "Making someone 6’9 look small is crazy."
"lol Wemby make bron regular height," a social media user wrote.
A poster remarked, "Why Victor always making the king to look short."
"Wemby making tall guys look short," a fan shared.
An Instagram user stated, "Wemby tall [expletive]."

Prior to joining the NBA in 2023, Victor Wembanyama was listed at 7-foot-4 (7-foot-5 in shoes), per ESPN. However, the official NBA page has him at 7-foot-3. With the latest photo of Wemby and James, though, it wouldn't be a surprise if speculation starts that the youngster is actually taller than his listed height.
