While he will be back in a few months with the Spurs, Victor Wembanyama will notably find Sidy Cissoko in Texas. And the Frenchman remains impressed by his teammate.
Currently with the Blues for preparation for the Olympic Games, Victor Wembanyama will meet his new teammates in a few months in Texas. We are thinking especially of the young Stephon Castle, who will be closely followed for his debut with the Spurs and under the leadership of Gregg Popovich. Positive point for him: the presence of Chris Paul, who should help him progress quickly.
We’re not worried about Wembanyama, who is likely to have a crazy sophomore campaign with maybe the DPOY and an All-Star Game appearance. Wemby wants to win it all and Sidy Cissoko will be able to confirm that. The other Frenchman on the Spurs hopes to be on the court with him to see it, with Popovich who could give him a spot in the rotation in 2025.
Sidy Cissoko big fan of Victor Wembanyama
Cissoko’s season will be closely watched by fans, having spent a good portion of his season in the G-League. He should get more minutes in the NBA this campaign, perhaps alongside Wembanyama if Popovich is willing. Sidy also shared some anecdotes about his compatriot during a conference with the media on Tuesday.

Sidy Cissoko says Wemby has gotten stronger and also, he always looks like he’s getting taller: “He looks like he’s still growing up, one day he looks like he’s 7’3”, 7’4”, and the next day, he’s like 7’5”, so we’re still trying to figure out.”

Sidy Cissoko explains that Wemby has become even more powerful and that he still has the impression that he is getting bigger: “It seems like he continues to grow, one day he is 2m21, the next 2m24 and the day after, he is 2m27, so we are still trying to understand.”
At just 20 years old, it is not impossible that Wembanyama will grow a little more, even if we will probably have to wait for news from Spurs on this subject for the start of the school year. Whatever happens, the Frenchman will arrive at the Olympics in absolutely impressive and terrifying form for the competition.
For Sidy Cissoko, Victor Wembanyama is becoming more and more powerful, which is excellent news for the Blues and the Spurs at the start of the school year. No doubt, he is well on his way to having an absolutely crazy competition.
