SAN ANTONIO — San Antonio Spurs' Victor Wembanyama is undoubtedly in the giving spirit this holiday season, and one lucky fan got the surprise of his young life.
Following the Spurs' Dec. 13 road win over Portland, Wemby was exiting the court when one little fan was excited to see his basketball hero pass him by.
He only wanted to shake hands with the Spurs center, but he got more than expected when Wemby gave him his game-worn jersey.
And he was left stunned!
This is not the first time Wemby has surprised young fans.
Following the team's Nov. 12 home win over the Sacramento Kings, one young fan somehow made his way onto the court to chase down Wembanyama, hoping he would get an autograph from the team's star.
However, the little fan got a better surprise than an autograph: Wemby's game-worn jersey.
Check out what he had to say about Wemby's generosity on a recent episode of Locked On Spurs.
