Teams better start stacking up on tall, athletic bigs to counter Wemby the way they did in the early 2000's with bulky bigs to counter Shaq. Y'all been warned.

What you need is a good defensive small forward (or PF) who has lateral quickness and some length to defend Wemby 1 on 1 IMO. He's not heavy, he's not big. He's skinny tall. If you can match his quickness and put a body in front, he's stopped, and you can get into his face to disrupt his shot. There's enough of those on many teams.

They also need to be able to pass and shoot as you can't be on the floor in 2023 if you can't do that ..so 7', athletic, pass and shoot...that's a long list 😅

Easy. Just get .... another Wemby lol
