[Highlight] Victor Wembanyama striking a pose in front of the Spurs bench
The bench lookin’ like how the people of Gondor looked at Boromir.
Kelly Olynyk gives me more of a Rohan vibe
More like Dunland wildling.
Fuck Kelly Olynyk, now and always.
That shoulder ripping move is burned into my memory. Absolutely uncalled for.
Kelly o been dirty for years lol undercut me at a basketball camp for no reason 😭
Kelly O came over to my house and left an upper-decker
I thought shit was sweet and ran right into Rob sacre back of my head hit the hardwood and I’ve been on reddit since.
Sounds like something someone from south Kamloops would do
Lol something in the air in Kamloops
Pollution from a blown up meth lab
as a cleveland fan, he will forever be a villain
Oh are we hatin’ on Kelly Olynyk? Wiz fans get in here!
KICK HIM IN THE HEAD!
Game 7 legend
Call him Kelly Snow because he’s a bastard
Picked 1 pick before Giannis btw. Lol
ALWAYS
Hashtag Never Forget
FUCK THAT GUY!!! GAME OF HIS LIFE TO STEAL CONTRACT AND MAKE WIZ SUFFER
Bridge 4 looking at Kaladin Stormblessed
Lu Dort is Gaz
Who’s Moash
Whichever one of these Rookies gets offered a bag when their contract is up and goes to Lakers/Celtics/OKC.
Fox. We’re still in book 2
Lmfao
A Way of Kings of reference. Well done
Wemby being able to combine my Brando Sando fando(m) and love for the NBA is like my TikTok algorithm working in real life.
Olynyk playing the part of the Stormfather:
“These words are…accepted.”
Amazing The Way of Kings reference lol
Mason Plumlee looking terrified at what he’s seeing.
Plumlee witnessing his son go down the path of greatness, losing himself in the process.
Wemby telling chet to turn his pages for sure
this sub looks at SGA like Denethor looks at Faramir
“Boromir would’ve nailed that ‘What a pro wants’ marketing campaign.”
The people of Middle Earth in awe of Wemby the wizard
nah, this is more the fellowship looking up at the Ents after taking out Saruman’s tower.
How the 8 year olds I coach look at me when I dunk on an 8.5ft basket.
Looking at him like he discovered fire
Why does it look like there are 25 people on San Antonio’s bench lmao
Spurs ownership ain’t the Blazers and brought our 2 way dudes on the road.
Only Reddit would turn this pose into an LOTR reference.
Can this be his statue in 20 years 🤔
It better be 1:1 too.
Unlike Sixers who did 1:0.5
It’s at our practice facility in Camden chill yall
I really hope they eventually move them to the new arena. I’m less bothered by their size than I am by the fact that they’re inaccessible to fans.
Sure but it’s not for the stadium. Need a big.one over there for that
But then the statue would still be 9 feet tall.
Yeah it would make a great statue but based on how terrible almost all basketball statues have been I don’t want to see it lol.
The guy who did Pat Riley should have the best job security rn
Just not by the D. Wade statue guy.
That dude made Antoine Walker a statue not DWade haha
Damn lol
That’s a glitch in the Matrix, it’s a Laurence Fishburne statue.
Rob Pelinka in 5 years will be trying his hardest to not make it happen.
Kareem… Shaq… Gasol… Wemby
I hope he has better statue poses, or at least better moments to capture, by the time he retires than a pensive pose at the end of game 1 of his first WCF lol
Bro played like 86 minutes, both ends of the court. Fatherhood is tough
And include the teammates, but they’re headless so you can stand behind them and get your picture taken.
Okay but the headless statues better be to scale too so everyone putting their heads on them has to jump or get a box to stand on.
Easier to pull this off than the D Wade pose
Epic aura farming
Length mogged Abe Lincoln and has the rizz to aura farm like this?
This comment gave me cancer.
lowcarcinogenically
Cancermaxxing
This actually made me start Lolmaxxinng
Not sure if this is English or Quebecois
r/suddenlytabarnak
what did I just read?
illiteracy
Type shit
I heard he sweats a variety of wellness increasing peptides
This is some Last Supper shit.
He hit em with the Washington crossing the Delaware
“The French are coming! The French are coming!”
Hear ye, hear ye!
r/accidentalrenaissance
Olynyk is 7ft tall and looks like Oliver Twist begging for more stew from Wemby. I get that there’s some distance between them but damn….
Killed me with this
I’m still staring at this confused at the size difference because Wemby is listed at 7’5”. Let’s say he’s even taller at 7’7” - it looks waaay more than a 7 inch difference.
And yes, Wemby is standing closer but it’s not like he’s standing on a completely different floor plane. If Wemby walked over and lined up his feet with theirs, I just don’t see how Wemby suddenly shrinks.
My brain cannot understand this optical illusion.
It’s the aura
Dudes that are like 6’5” are only coming up to Wemby’s chest. You could tell me he’s 8’ tall and I’d believe it
Well that midget Olynyk is only 6’11 tbf
Wemby is closer to the camera, but it’s tough to see that due to the framing + angle
Well, Trump is listed at 224 lbs
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/EfkpTalrZYA
Boban is officially listed as 7’4 and he is smaller than Wemby.
Idk what Oliver Twist looks like but this is funny af
Back in the day, I made a 2k player with all stats maxed out, including height. This is the guy I made in the video game.
Literally the demigod park build from 2K15 iykyk
It was such a bitch to time the loading quit outs lmao
nah you probably put a fro on your guy
Just picturing Wemby with a fro.
Dude would look like a Q-Tip, lmao…
This is literally correct
I’m pretty sure that’s a requirement because I did the same for my player.
Stretch from the original NBA Street lol
Who was only 6’11”!
Had a whole squad of these dudes on Kobe Bryant NBA Courtside for the 64.
I honestly think he was just tired af haha
Lmaoooo that’s actually a funnier interpretation.
Makes it better. Raw aura instead of farmed aura.
Organic, hand picked aura
I saw the realtime replay - he looks to the left for a second. Glances at something in the stands and then back. When it’s super slow-mo, it looks like he was posing for them - but he literally just glanced.
That’s what’s so great. He’s not trying to be awesome. He just is

At that time, this world had a Fremen name, Dune San Antonio.
Kids at the playground pointing at big bro after he chased off the bully-energy
Unironically he’s Chad from Recess
Who is Randall?
Caruso. Asking Ms. Finster for a tech.
Everyone looking super hyped, and then Mason Plumlee looking like he’s scared Wemby might actually be an Alien. Lmao
He’s just trying to make sense of what he is witnessing
You look at all those guys standing up and some of them if you were to meet them in person would probably be the tallest human beings you’ll ever encounter in your life. And Wemby completely towers over them like an adult over pre-teen kids. Just ridiculous how tall and long this guy is.
Keep us uodated on his progress. Wanna see how tall long and thick he can get
I had first row seats for a Jazz game this season. Kevin Love was one of the tallest people I’ve ever seen and he was like the tenth tallest guy playing that night
yeah and he grew up obsessing over kd
Shaq vs Yao type shit
The Auralien
Too bad he’s not from Australia, the Australien would go so hard
Frenchalien
SGA: takes notes
SGA can’t stand like that tho.
Yes he could. Just 30ft closer towards the free throw line and the people he’s posing for are the refs
He’d fall to the floor if he ever were to attempt it
why did bro get them matching trench coats lmfao
Nah, it’s way cooler to wear a dead animal and have rhyming instagram captions. That’s real aura.
/s
Like the hobbits looking at Gandalf
The MLK of basketball.
Free at last! (Of the Thunder)
This shit was legendary. He did this and somehow it didn’t look boastful for him to do it.
He wasn’t actually striking a pose so why would you expect him to look boastful? He was probably just taking a breather and looking up at the clock. Hands on hips (or knees) is pretty common when somebody’s tired from exercise.
That’s exactly what I mean. It was unintentionally legendary.
Where can I find a high quality picture of this though ??
Accidental renaissance on the still
Hope The OKC Tiktokers are paying attention to what real aura looks like.
Jared McCain finna recreate the final scene from singing in the rain on TikTok as a counter
Wemby aura 🔥🔥🔥
W E M B Y
I bet he plays Waluigi in Mario Tennis
I’ve never read a comment I’ve agreed with the most.
Imagine getting your shot blocked and he hits you with the Washington crossing the Delaware
All time shot right here. This will be around for a long time, especially if we win the championship this year
Ultra instinct wemby
Wait til Bol Bol gets his opportunity
Bol Bol exists so people can’t just say “Wemby dominates because he is so much bigger than everyone else”
😂 aka Shaq. But yea you’re right
bro said bol bol
Shaq did.
King of the castle, king of the castle
“I am what you think I think I am”
If the Spurs go all the way this year I’m going to need a still image of this framed and hung on my wall.
2026: Aura
2030: Cringe
That’s the life of a Superstar in the NBA
Brother it won’t even be 2030, it’s gunna start October this year.
Taking it all in. Good for him.
is that kelly onynky? lmao wow
Almost looks like the pose drose does after dunking on that dude in high school
https://tenor.com/view/mourinho-jose-mourinho-inter-milan-pose-gif-27411749
If he had stood in front of the OKC bench they would still have looked exactly like this.
Dude is so fucking French and I love it
Hate him as a competitor but can’t deny he’s unquestionable GOAT material if he remains healthy.
Also, Spurs better enjoy being fan favorites because a year from now this guy is going to be hated and called corny for this type of stuff.
Nah he won’t. This is an insane player with great attitude on and off court.
Fuck it man Im glazing, this guy is a cool ass mf
lmao Carter Bryant looks 10 years old
Lmao why he aura farming for
Is this after the three to tie it?
Think it was after one of those blocks towards the end of 2OT
Why does Kelly Olynyk look like Jerma in this
Is this the hardest picture since Westbrook flexing on the Grizzlies’ floor ?
HIMbanyama
That should go on a card. Just the moment alone was iconic.
I NEED THIS PHOTO
Should have did the akuma pose
the aura.
dude even creates epic moments just standing around
He looks like an English teacher taking his 8th grade class out for a field trip and
this pretty tough ngl
This is why the nba playoffs are so sick! Even if the viewing experience is terrible and the refereeing is infuriating. We get to see players do shit like this. Love to see Wemby go absolutely off last night!
Superman
2k cover
“Are you not entertained!” - Victimus Wembimus Yaridius
This reminded me of Lebron scoring 30 straight points to beat the Pistons back in 2007. It really feels like Wemby has arrived and that the hype was absolutely real
HoeKC Thunder
Iconic
Why they looking at him like he’s the lisan al gaib lmao
PLEASE turn this into a trading card. Wemby’s first appearance in a conference finals. 41 points, 24 rebounds, and 3 blocks.
my nephew said “THEY LOOK LIKE THE MINIONS”
Put a cape on that mf 👽
Officially surpassed Napoleon on the all time French people list
One of the great sports images, period.
The main thing I took away from this is that Kelly Olynyk is on the Spurs. Who knew
Aura
This photo will be used non stop if the Spurs win it all
PUT IT IN THE LOUVRE
Bro’s posing like Wilt with the hands on hips
Hang it in the Louvre
