Summary

Victor Wembanyama is back in the USA after a week enchanting the hearts and minds of his French countrymen in Paris. Wemby's greatness on and off the court has left us with a whole new crop of questions: Is Wemby destined to be the next face of the league? What does the Alien have in common with Patrick Mahomes? Could anyone ever fill LeBron James' shoes? And what other stars on the rise could challenge Wemby for the mantle? Plus, we answer which NBA player was hit hardest by the Eagles playoff win over the Commanders, share our DraftKings play of the day on Hot Streak, and take a moment to remember Kobe Bryant on the five year anniversary of his passing.
