Yahoo Sports NBA Is Victor Wembanyama WORTHY of starting the NBA All-Star game? | The Big Number
It’s an All-Star-centric episode of 'The Big Number' as Tom Haberstroh & Dan Devine make the case for their Western Conference starters, headlined by Victor Wembanyama. Despite playing for a San Antonio Spurs team with a losing record, could Wemby become one of the youngest All-Star starters in NBA history?
The pair use this week’s Little Numbers to make a case for the remaining Western Conference starters including Nikola Jokić of the Denver Nuggets, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of the Oklahoma City Thunder, Steph Curry of the Golden State Warriors and more. Can Luka Dončić be named a starter in spite of how few minutes he’s played? And who will Dan & Tom choose between Los Angeles Lakers star Anthony Davis and Sacramento Kings clutch performer Domantas Sabonis?
To wrap, Tom & Dan give an update on their over/unders competition and make two new picks concerning Victor Wembanyama’s free throw attempts and shot distance.
