Spurs Fiesta 5: How Tall Really is Victor Wembanyama?
In this story:
"Numerous sites below the initial result list the future No. 1 pick as 7-5, while others list him at 7-4 or 7-3, one site even going as far as to declare Wembanyama 7-9, which would make his ability to play basketball at the NBA level highly improbable."
"Now, Williams has taken over Popovich's spot as the highest-paid coach in the league, but it may not be long for Pop to take that No. 1 spot back again."
3. LAST NBA COACH HIRE
The Phoenix Suns have a head coach.
According to The Athletic, the Suns are hiring former Los Angeles Lakers head coach Frank Vogel to the same position.
Vogel last coached for the Lakers from 2019-22, where he won the 2020 NBA championship. Now, he'll be tasked to do the same with Devin Booker and Kevin Durant leading the way.
Now, the San Antonio Spurs are the only team without a head coach under contract for the 2023-24, as Gregg Popovich remains without a new deal.
