2023 NBA Draft tracker: Complete list of first- and second-round picks, analysis, grades, reaction

Victor Wembanyama is officially a San Antonio Spur.

After years of anticipation, the French phenom joined the NBA on Thursday night as the first pick of the NBA Draft. As widely anticipated, the Spurs selected the 7-foot-4 center, who's expected to transform the position and lead San Antonio from the lottery back to NBA prominence.

Wembanyama follows the footsteps in San Antonio of fellow No. 1 overall picks David Robinson and Tim Duncan, who went on to Hall of Fame careers while combining to lead the Spurs to five NBA championships. Spurs fans won't have to wait long to see him. Head coach Gregg Popovich confirmed after the pick that Wembanyama will play Summer League games.

"We're talking about what he should be doing moving forward," Popovich told reporters. ... "He will participate in the Summer League. To what degree, we're not sure yet."

With the No. 2 pick, the Hornets took Alabama's Brandon Miller, selecting the 6-9 forward over G League Ignite guard Scoot Henderson. The Portland Trail Blazers then pounced on the opportunity to select the player widely regarded as the draft's second-best player and took Henderson at No. 3.
