Wembanyama is having a historically dominant season for the San Antonio Spurs.
Right now, Wembanyama is putting together a defensive season for the ages. He’s averaging 23.6 points, 10.3 rebounds, and 3.5 blocks per game, numbers that are hard to argue with.
With 73 blocks and 24 steals so far, he’s not just putting up great stats; he’s altering the entire flow of the game on the defensive end. But is he already a lock for DPOY? Let’s dive into the numbers and the competition to see if that’s really the case.Wembanyama is currently putting together a season that could go down as one of the most dominant defensive performances we’ve seen in years. Here’s a look at his season so far:Add to that 24 steals, and you can see why the odds are so heavily in his favor.
It's pretty unreal what the second-year Frenchman is doing in San Antonio. Could he become the first player since Hakeem Olajuwon in 1989-90 to average four blocks per game? He could be tracking that way.As you can see, Wembanyama’s odds are significantly lower than his competitors, making him the favorite. Jaren Jackson Jr., the 2022-23' DPOY winner, sits much further back in the odds at +475. Mobley, Gobert, and Green trail even further.
With his all-time great defensive numbers, it’s really hard to see anyone else taking the award this season barring injury. Of course, there’s always the possibility of a late push from another contender, but right now, it seems like Wembanyama is running away with it.'You Have to Fight!'
