The San Antonio Spurs are enjoying a wave of enthusiasm both at home and on the road, largely thanks to the electrifying presence of Victor Wembanyama. Since his draft day, Wembanyama has been a magnet for fans, drawing large crowds wherever he plays. His recent trip to Toronto was no exception, with fans turning out in droves to catch a glimpse of the rising star.
In a standout moment, a fan dressed as a green alien sporting Wembanyama’s jersey was spotted soaking in the warm-ups from the stands, embodying the unique and spirited support Wembanyama inspires.
After the game, Wembanyama reflected on the overwhelming support he's been receiving. "Do I get used to it?"
he pondered aloud. "I don't know if I will, but I'm not used to it yet.

It's always a pleasure. The support at home is unconditional, but on the road, I hear a lot of French-speaking fans, which is special.
It feels like love and a great pressure, and I'm trying to grow that even more. It helps me feel a bit at home everywhere."
The Spurs edged out the Raptors in a thrilling 110-107 victory in Toronto, with Wembanyama contributing 12 points, eight rebounds, three assists, a steal, and an impressive five blocks. This win boosts the Spurs’ record to 42-16, keeping them hot on the heels of the Oklahoma City Thunder for the top spot in the Western Conference.
