圣安东尼奥马刺队的“小市场”球员维克多·文班亚马在常规赛期间在 NBA 社交和数字媒体平台上共获得了 13 亿次浏览量，仅次于湖人队的勒布朗·詹姆斯（19 亿次）和勇士队的斯蒂芬·库里（17 亿次），位居第三。独行侠球星卢卡·东契奇（12 亿次）是唯一一个拥有至少 7 亿次浏览量的其他球员。
这位非凡的——甚至可能来自外星的——身高 7 英尺 3 英寸的新秀凭借每晚令人震惊的运动能力、前所未有的控球技巧和创造性的空中壮举成长为社交媒体宠儿。文班亚马在除夕夜从罚球线内线轻松扣篮，获得了 2.47 亿次浏览量，仅次于独行侠队涉及东契奇和凯里·欧文的电光火石空中接力。
在圣安东尼奥度过了前五个半赛季的怀特，至少在文班亚马的精彩扣篮中表现得很有风度。
6 英尺 4 英寸的怀特说道：“我并不是傻瓜，”他选择不挑战文班亚马的腾空单手扣篮。“我希望他会再运一次球，但他只是拿了球，我再也没有看到它。我只是想避开。我以为他会再运一次球，但这太疯狂了。”
文班亚马在整个新秀赛季都展现了疯狂的举动，虽然马刺队 (22-60) 以联盟第五差的战绩收尾，但这个赛季本身已成为 NBA 历史上最引人注目的赛季之一。这位 20 岁的法国人以 21.4 分、10.6 个篮板、联盟最高的 3.6 次盖帽和 1.2 次抢断带领圣安东尼奥马刺队，并增加了 3.9 次助攻和每场比赛 1.8 个三分球。
他应该轻松赢得年度最佳新秀，可能成为第一位入选全防守一阵的 NBA 新人，并且有望角逐年度最佳防守球员。
马刺队后卫特雷·琼斯说：“他今年只用了一个赛季就在所有期望和压力下做出了许多了不起的事情。他能做很多疯狂的事情。每晚，他都在做一些我们以前从未见过的全新举动。”
而每一个这样的夜晚，全世界似乎都在关注。

Wemby collects over 1 billion social media views in rookie season
Victor Wembanyama of the “small market” Spurs amassed 1.3 billion views across NBA social and digital media platforms during the regular season, the third-highest total behind the Lakers’ LeBron James (1.9 billion) and Warriors’ Stephen Curry (1.7 billion). Mavericks star Luca Doncic (1.2 billion) was the only other player with at least 700 million.
The extraordinary – and possibly extraterrestrial – 7-foot-3 rookie grew into a social media darling with nightly displays of shocking athleticism, playmaking unprecedented for a man of his stature and inventive aerial exploits. Wembanyama’s graceful breakaway dunk from just inside the free-throw line over Celtics guard Derrick White on New Year’s Eve garnered 247 million views, the second-highest total behind an electric Mavericks alley-oop involving Doncic and Kyrie Irving.
White, who spent his first five and a half seasons in San Antonio, was at least a good sport about being involved in Wembanyama’s viral dunk.
“I’m not an idiot,” the 6-4 White said of opting not to challenge Wemby’s soaring one-handed dunk. “I was hoping he would take another dribble, but he just picked it up, and I never saw it again. I was just trying to get out of the way. I assumed he was going to take one more dribble, but that was crazy.”
Wembanyama turned crazy into the norm throughout a rookie season that will stand on its own as one of the most spectacular in NBA history despite the Spurs (22-60) finishing with the league’s fifth-worst record. The 20-year-old Frenchman led San Antonio with 21.4 points, 10.6 rebounds, a league-high 3.6 blocks and 1.2 steals and added 3.9 assists and 1.8 3-pointers per game.
He should win Rookie of the Year in a rout, could become the first NBA freshman to make the All-Defensive first team and is a viable contender for Defensive Player of the Year.
“He was able to do so many great things this year just in one season with all the expectations and all the pressure on him,” Spurs guard Tre Jones said. “He was able to do so many crazy things. Every single night he’s doing something new we haven’t seen before.”
And every one of those nights, the whole world seemed to be watching.
