Victor Wembanyama showed the hoops world why he is touted as the next big thing in the NBA. While the Sacramento Kings were humbled 96-116 by the San Antonio Spurs, the limelight was surely on the 20-year-old. Wembanyama registered one of his best games of the season. Dropping a whopping 34 points, he ensured that the Spurs won big in order to keep themselves in the hunt for the playoffs.
Along with his incredible 30-plus points, Wembanyama also recorded three blocks, 14 rebounds, and 6 assists. Surely, such a performance will make the fans want to reach out to their hero and get any memorabilia they can to make the experience last forever. Likewise, a little Spurs fan racked up the courage to walk up to the daunting 7’3” stature of Wembanyama. The little one immediately took out a marker and asked the NBA rising star to give an autograph. But what Wembanyama did next had everyone cheering for him even more.

Kelce made an appearance on ESPN’s ‘College GameDay’ ahead of the fixture, but it wasn’t a smooth Saturday as he smashed a fan’s phone for asking how he feels about his brother Travis being “f***ot” for dating Taylor Swift, because it’s apparently gay to date women now…
Kelce would grab said fan’s phone, as he was recording him at the time, before smashing it and then asking him, “Who’s the faggot now?”
