San Antonio superstar center Victor Wembanyama appears to be gunning for his first MVP this year — a decorated ex-NBA player projects how high he can climb historically.

Victor Wembanyama had 24 points and 15 rebounds, and the San Antonio Spurs remained unbeaten with a 121-103 victory over the Toronto Raptors.

Victor Wembanyama is performing like the best player in the world to start his third NBA season, and the San Antonio Spurs are yet to see him at his best.

Bill Simmons believes the Victor Wembanyama-led Spurs are already as good as any team in the Southwest Division.

According to ESPN's Marc Spears, Holmgren's NBA championship with the Thunder is lighting a fire under Wemby. "I was told by somebody inside that room that Wemby is motivated by Chet. Chet having one up on him on the championship," he said. If true, this is not a significant shock.

The San Antonio Spurs have a long history of dominant NBA big men, but their latest project could feature the most talented one out of all of them based on his early contributions to the Western Conference team in his first two seasons.

A former NBA veteran took the time to explain how Victor Wembanyama has evolved into a dominant force to start the new season.

The new and improved Victor Wembanyama can now lay claim to the best opening week any Western Conference player has had this season.
