Victor Wembanyama already towered above his competition.
Now, the official numbers say the San Antonio Spurs' star towers even just a bit more.
Wemby was listed at 7-foot-3 last season. But on the Spurs' roster for the 2025-26 campaign, he's been granted some more inches.
How tall is Victor Wembanyama?
Victor Wembanyama is now listed at 7-foot-5 on the Spurs' roster for the upcoming campaign.
That's an increase of two inches from his listed height last season.
Just as important as Wemby's listed height, of course, is the fact that he's on the court at all. His last season ended prematurely due to a concerning blood clot issue. There was uncertainty about when he'd get back to basketball.
But now, Wembanyama is back to basketball, and he's ready to continue his ascendance to the top of the sport.
