“I predict he’s the MVP this year,” Anthony said. “I say that because every category that there is, he can lead this season. They’ve never seen anything like Wilt until Kareem and you never seen anything like Kareem until Shaq.

“We’ve never seen no sh*t like Shaq before, a physical prowess specimen like Shaq. We’ve never seen a LeBron before. And we’ve never seen Wemby. That’s MVP. He went to all the infinity stones; went to Hakeem, went to Garnett… and we ain’t seen the alien yet.”

 

Talent-wise, Wembanyama has the skills to win the MVP. The issue is his health. Can Wembanyama stay healthy enough to finish a season and be eligible to win the MVP?

That’s the biggest hurdle in Wembanyama’s way of winning the Michael Jordan Trophy.
