Alex Sarr thinks Victor Wembanyama is better than the likes of Rudy Gobert and Draymond Green, but not Bam Adebayo.
Victor Wembanyama impressed everyone during his rookie season, but fellow Frenchman Alex Sarr doesn’t believe he is yet a better player than Bam Adebayo. In a recent interview with Bleacher Report, Sarr was asked to name a player better than Wembanyama.
Sarr remained silent when names like Rudy Gobert, Draymond Green, and Chet Holmgren were mentioned, but he spoke up for Adebayo. While this might seem controversial, it’s not an outrageous opinion.
Adebayo averaged 19.3 points, 10.4 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.1 steals, and 0.9 blocks per game in the 2023-24 season for the Miami Heat, shooting 52.1% from the field. He was named to the NBA All-Defensive First Team and had an all-around stellar campaign.
