From San Antonio to the Stars

An alien that has started his campaign to revolutionize the game of basketball has now punched his galactic ticket to the Finals against the New York Knicks. In arguably one of the best playoff series in years, Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs have exterminated the once heavy favorite and reigning champions, the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference Finals.

I was lucky enough to swipe this #1 serial and jersey march jukebox parallel (only minted to 10) of Wemby’s most important moment of his young career thus far. The extraterrestrial loaded up the young guns in his spaceship and stole one on the road in OKC in Game 1 of the WCF. He authored a 41 point and 24 rebound masterclass in a double overtime victory. With 24 seconds left in the first OT, Wemby nailed a 28 foot bomb to tie the game and break the basketball universe sending them to double OT. To secure the victory, he deployed his DPOY powers and stuffed Jalen Williams at the rim.

Owning this moment feels massive and monumental as a basketball historian. He just might end up securing his first championship in the year 2026, and this play will be remembered around the world and the universe.

From San Antonio to the stars, thunder doesn’t echo here.
