The French phenom of the San Antonio Spurs is already dominating the league, and now he has hinted that fans could see him in the dunk contest someday.
After a massive showing against the Sacramento Kings, Wembanyama told reporters he will "be in the dunk contest one day," during a post-game comment.
Against Sacramento, Wembanyama put on a performance for the ages. He finished with 28 points, 15 rebounds, six assists, and four blocks in a 139–122 Spurs win.
His combination of length, coordination, and skill makes him a nightmare for opponents. Fans aren't just watching highlight dunks — they're seeing a player who can dominate the paint while barely leaving the floor.
If he ever enters the Dunk Contest, it would instantly become one of the most anticipated events in All-Star Weekend history.
