一个原本可以入选NBA最佳阵容的赛季，却因一次严重的伤病而戛然而止。
欢迎来到Pounding the Rock的2024-25赛季球员回顾！本系列将着眼于那些与 圣安东尼奥马刺队 签有保障合同，并且出场时间重要或扮演关键角色的球员（因此不包括双向合同球员，因为我们今年几乎没怎么看到他们，也不包括那些被交易走的球员）。
维克托·文班亚马
2024-25赛季数据：46场比赛，场均33.2分钟，24.3分，11个篮板，3.8次盖帽，三分球命中率35.2%
合同状态：剩余2年，3020万美元
年龄：22岁
维克托·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama)原本有望入选NBA最佳阵容，但肩部深静脉血栓形成，导致他缺席了下半赛季。在几乎各个方面都取得了进步，入选NBA全明星，并领跑联盟盖帽榜后，文班亚马已经确立了自己作为联盟超级球星的地位。如果不是因为受伤，我们现在可能正在讨论年度最佳防守球员、最佳阵容一队或二队，以及季后赛席位。
然而，文班亚马的第二个赛季将被“如果……”所定义。当他出场时，他的表现非常出色。他已经成为NBA最好的护框者，持续阻止球员尝试在油漆区投篮。他的失误率从16.2略微下降到13.7，因为他学会了何时选择出手时机。最大的进步莫过于他的三分球能力。文班亚马在本赛季的大部分时间里都成为了一个远距离狙击手。他以35.2%的命中率，场均出手8.8次三分球。
对文班亚马比赛的常见批评是，他在进攻端花太多时间远离篮筐。本赛季，文班亚马47%的投篮来自三分线外。他在第二年的篮下出手次数减少了约0.90%。但文班亚马凭借他的身高在远距离创造空间，这将为德埃隆·福克斯(De’Aaron Fox)和斯蒂芬·卡斯尔(Stephon Castle)等球员创造突破机会。文班亚马仍然是篮筐周围的一股力量。他的投篮选择可能需要平衡一下，但他扩大的射程应该只会对马刺队有所帮助。
展望未来
圣安东尼奥有足够的资产在下个赛季围绕文班亚马组建一支具有竞争力的球队。有了福克斯，无论他们决定如何处理选秀大会上的第二顺位和第十四顺位选秀权，卡斯尔，哈里森·巴恩斯(Harrison Barnes)，以及他们今夏决定引进的任何人，其他球队都无法在整场比赛中派两到三名防守者来对付他。我们可能会看到文班亚马在第三年再次取得飞跃，因为他正在追逐一个季后赛席位。
围绕文班亚马未来最大的问题是他的健康。肩部的血栓令人担忧。虽然马刺队坚称这是一起孤立事件，但其他球员也因这种疾病而缩短了职业生涯。球迷们对他的未来感到紧张是正常的。他们对他可能代表法国国家队参加今年夏天的欧洲篮球锦标赛感到不安也是正常的。他的长期健康对这支球队来说是最重要的事情。
下个赛季可能是文班亚马职业生涯中最激动人心的赛季。他将与另一位球星福克斯并肩作战。圣安东尼奥应该在今年夏天引进更多的射手，以扩大他周围的进攻空间。如果他完全康复，这似乎很有可能，那么明年的天空才是他的极限。文班亚马将在2026年夏天有资格获得续约合同。他肯定会得到顶薪新秀续约合同，并领导马刺队很多年。
最佳表现
11月13日对阵华盛顿奇才队。职业生涯最高的50分，三分球16投8中。
最终评分：A+

2024-25 Spurs Player Reviews: Victor Wembanyama
An All-NBA season was cut short by a serious injury.
Welcome to Pounding the Rock’s 2024-25 player reviews! The series will look at the players who finished the season with the San Antonio Spurs on guaranteed contracts and who played consequential minutes and/or a vital role (so no two-way players because we hardly saw them this year, and no players who were traded away).
Victor Wembanyama
2024-25 stats: 46 games, 33.2 MPG, 24.3 points, 11 rebounds, 3.8 blocks, 35.2 3FG%
Contract Status: 2 years, $30.2 remaining
Age: 22
Victor Wembanyama was well on his way to an All-NBA season before suffering deep vein thrombosis in his shoulder, sidelining him for the second half of the year. After improving in seemingly every aspect of his game, making an NBA All-Star team, and leading the league in blocks, Wembanyama had earned his place as a Superstar in the league. If it weren’t for his injury, we’d probably be talking about the defensive player of the year, first or second team All-NBA, and a playoff appearance.
Instead, Wembanyama’s sophomore season will be one defined by “what ifs.” When he did play, he was awesome. He has become the best rim protector in the NBA, continuing to deter players from even attempting shots in the paint. His turnover rate decreased ever so slightly from 16.2 to 13.7, as he learned when to pick his spots. No development was bigger than his three-point shooter. Wembanyama became a sniper from deep for a big chunk of the season. He knocked down 35.2% of his threes on 8.8 attempts per game.
The common criticism of Wembanyama’s game is that he spends too much time away from the basket offensively. 47% of Wemby’s shots came from three-point range this season. He attempted roughly .90% fewer attempts at the rim in year two. But the advantages that Wembanyama creates by spacing the floor from deep at his size will open driving lanes for players like De’Aaron Fox and Stephon Castle moving forward. Wembanyama is still a force around the basket. His shot selection likely needs to balance out, but his expanded range should only help the Spurs moving forward.
Looking ahead
San Antonio has plenty of assets to put a competitive basketball team around Wembanyama next season. With Fox, whatever they decide to do with the second and fourteenth picks in the draft, Castle, Harrison Barnes, and whoever they decide to acquire this summer, teams won’t be able to send two or three defenders at him all game. We may see Wembanyama make another leap forward in year three as he chases a playoff spot.
The biggest question around Wembanyama’s future is his health. The blood clot in his shoulder is scary. While the Spurs have insisted this is an isolated incident, other players have had promising careers cut short because of the medical issue. It’s fair for fans to be nervous about his future. It’s fair for them to be skittish about him potentially playing for the French national team in Eurobasket this summer. His long-term health is the most important thing for this franchise.
Next season may be the most exciting of Wemby’s career. He’ll play alongside another star in Fox. San Antonio should acquire more shooters this summer to open up the floor around him. If he makes a full recovery, which seems likely, the sky is the limit next year. Wembanyama is extension-eligible in the summer of 2026. He’ll certainly earn the maximum rookie extension and lead the Spurs for many years to come.
Top performance
November 13 vs. Washington Wizards. Career-High 50 points on 8-16 shooting from three.
Final grade: A+
