Pau Gasol advises Victor Wembanyama to focus on interior play

Pau Gasol commented on Victor Wembanyama’s playing style, suggesting he should spend more time inside the paint rather than outside. Gasol emphasized that Wembanyama’s large wingspan is pivotal for his defensive and offensive contributions closer to the basket. Wembanyama recently participated in off-season workouts in France with several San Antonio Spurs teammates, including Tobias Harris and De'Aaron Fox. These sessions are aimed at enhancing his skills ahead of the upcoming season, where Wembanyama aims to address past vulnerabilities in creating his own shots. Spurs CEO R.C. Buford highlighted Wembanyama’s leadership in organizing these workouts, indicating a commitment to team development.
