Few players in [NBA](https://www.sportingnews.com/uk/nba) history, like Victor Wembanyama, have been able to make an instant difference on their team the second they entered the league.
His height and wingspan make him one of the most dangerous players on both the offensive and defensive ends of the court.
He's a great scorer, but his defensive abilities definitely stand out, with him seemingly breaking new records on a nightly basis.
One record that he could be eying down next is a 34-year-old one held by David Robinson, which is in danger of being broken by Wembanyama this year if he continues to improve.
What insane record could Victor Wembanyama break in 2025-26?
------------------------------------------------------------
The 34-year-old record is a 'stocks' record (steals + blocks) that David Robinson set back in the 1991-92 NBA season.
He averaged 6.81 'stocks' that season, with 4.5 blocks and 2.3 steals.
Not many players have come close to his record since he set it, with names like Hakeem Olajuwon and Ben Wallace producing impressive numbers, but not high enough to threaten the record.

That was until Wembanyama came into the league, averaging 4.96 stocks in his sophomore year in the league (2024-25).
You might be thinking that's nowhere close to Robinson's feat, but the impressive part of Wembanyam's mark is that he only played 33.2 minutes last season (4.5 less than Robinson's average in 1991-92).
Wembanyama just started his third season in the NBA, and has already upped his 'stocks' to 6.25 in four games this season.
Yes, this is a very small sample size that we're talking about, but Wembanyama is only starting to get back in the groove of regular NBA minutes after missing substantial time during the backend of last season.
He's only averaged 32.3 minutes this season (0.9 less than last season), with his mark of 6.25 stocks putting him tentatively at third all-time for the single-season record.
With Wembanyama being viewed as such a valuable asset and someone who could be at a higher risk for injuries, his time on court might not drastically improve across this season, but he still might be in the running for breaking Robinson's three-plus decade record.
Wembanyama was an all-star for the first time last season, something we'll probably get used to seeing each season, as long as he stays healthy.
Health will play a huge role in determining Wembanyama's output on the court, but it's safe to say he's trending in the right direction when it comes to coming close to records like the 'stocks' record Robinson holds.
