The Eiffel Tower

<span style="font-weight: 400">

</span><span style="font-weight: 400">       He’s a 7’3 talent from Le Chesnay, France who can pretty much play any position on the floor. With an 8 foot wingspan who can handle the ball, court vision, shoot fadeaway shots, consistent 3 point shooter, and provide rim protection. The general masses including fans and pro players believe he’s a product of Kevin Durant. With practically the same abilities as the “Slim Reaper” but I would also say a product of Dirk Nowitzki too. People forget the one legged fadeaway shot that was pretty much unguardable. </span><span style="font-weight: 400">    </span><span style="font-weight: 400">    </span><span style="font-weight: 400">    </span><span style="font-weight: 400">    </span><span style="font-weight: 400">    </span><span style="font-weight: 400">    </span><span style="font-weight: 400">    </span><span style="font-weight: 400">   </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">     </span><span style="font-weight: 400">What makes Victors game stand out is his rim protection in the interior. The fact that when he’s in the interior makes it harder for anyone to dive to the basket. Iso ball one on one face up with him and he can definitively block those shots with his commitment on the defensive end. Combine with his footwork to make high volume shots like the midrange and three’s point shots at just 18 years old makes you imagine what he’ll look like once he’s in his prime.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">    </span><span style="font-weight: 400">Above reference is a highlight clip against G league ignite earlier this month in Las Vegas. Here’s a few breakdowns of his game from start to finish. </span><span style="font-weight: 400">    </span><span style="font-weight: 400">    </span><span style="font-weight: 400">    </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">    </span><span style="font-weight: 400">In the beginning of the first quarter , Victor with the help defense and blocks the shot at the rim. Second sequence Victor brings up the ball calls for a pick as a decoy, handles the ball , quick step towards his right , takes the contact , spin move towards the basket for a bucket. In the clip there’s one play where his guard Konate sees Victor by the rim. Because of his size advantage and the mismatch konate throws a lob at Victor for a basket. Another play Victor is at the perimeter his guard sets a pick for him to pop and drills a three. Another play Victor does a screen and roll , gets the ball and does a step back three from the perimeter. It’s honestly unreal what his natural abilities can do at his size. At the 2:17 mark Victor goes iso with his defender face up in the post, creates space for the mid range shot. </span><span style="font-weight: 400">    </span>
