“Who is the most underestimated NBA player?” »» This is the question asked Victor Wembanyama In a small NBA clip, and the Frenchman chose … LeBron James! “I'm going to choose LeBron James because 'underestimated' means that we are not estimated at its fair value. I think LeBron is underestimated “ French is justified.
In this short clip, “Wemby” answers a question about the most gifted player, and he opted for Kyrie Irving. To return to the “most underestimated player” of the NBA, we must remember that The Athletic had asked players the question last April after the regular season.
Their choice had focused on Derrick White and Jalen Williams, with 10.3% of the votes. The first has since been Olympic champion, while the second will celebrate its first selection at the All-Star Game. Behind this duo, we found Jrue Holiday, also Olympic champion, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the number 1 opponent of Nikola Jokic in the MVP race.
Among the other players cited, we found Franz Wagner, Coby White, De'Aaron Fox and… Kyrie Irving. But no LeBron James.
