Scoot Henderson is still aiming for the top spot in the 2023 Draft

“If I hadn’t been born, I think he would deserve to be the first choice.” Victor Wembanyama’s little sentence before his duels with Scoot Henderson made a lot of people smile, but not necessarily the American.

“I don’t listen to that kind of stuff. I don’t pay attention to that” he replied to Andscape. “He can talk all he wants. It’s like that. It doesn’t motivate me anymore. I already have enough motivation in me. I had already planned to go into the field and destroy everything. »

During their first meeting, Scoot Henderson executed his plan rather well with 28 points, 9 assists, 5 rebounds and 2 steals. All at 11 of 21 on shots, including 2/3 from 3-pointers, plus the win.

Not one to settle for being second

But injured during the second game, he could only observe Victor Wembanyama’s show from the side, and the reactions that followed, from LeBron James to Kevin Durant via Stephen Curry and Giannis Antetokounmpo.

“Being the first choice of the Draft is the main objective”repeats the playmaker of the G-League Ignite all the same. “I am blessed and honored to be in the position that I am in, in the eyes of people. But that never mattered to me. My competitiveness, my state of mind, it makes me want to be number 1 in everything I do and to be great in everything I do. This is my main objective. »

For a GM, still questioned by Andscape, Victor Wembanyama has yet marked the spirits too much.

“We know that Victor is going to be the first choice because he has talent and skills that you only find once in a generation. He moves like a winger. Many teams will position themselves all season to have a chance to select him. But Scoot is a very talented player who, at this point, is more of a point-scoring playmaker. I really like his competitive spirit and he seems easy to coach, which is important in this position. He seems to enjoy the big moments and the challenges. He has very good athletic qualities and strength for a young player. On the other hand, I would like to see him improve his defensive concentration in one-on-one, given his physical qualities. thus concludes this anonymous leader.
