Victor Wembanyama drawing in a park in NYC before Game 3 of the NBA Finals
Is cameraman hiding in the garbage?
That’s how you stalk an NBA superstar
Or maybe the cameraman is oscar the grouch
Oscar is a New Yorker after all.
bitch, I live in a fucking trash can!!
Nobody’s helping me, I’m just getting evicted.
Oscar is actually from Canada on the show. He’s Can-adian.
That trash can is a $3000pm 1BR in NYC put some respect on Oscar
Imagine if Wemby stalked someone. Where tf would he even hide 🤣
Thats actually a small apartment
What’s the rent like on that baby?
$3500
A Parkside apartment for $3500?? That’s a STEAL
More than you can afford, pal
Looks above average to me
The twist is that the cameraman is actually a raccoon
It’s Kevin Durant
Cruising in the bushes
I could be wrong but I think that’s Gramercy Park? Which is gated and locked with a key. Only residents and social club members have access. I suspect the camera man is filming through the gate, and the trash is there on the way out where you’d be filming.
Yeah I was about to comment the same thing, you’re 100% right. Camera seems to have decent zoom so he could just be right outside
Someone tell Southampton this is the wrong sport.
NYC rent is expensive. Dude is in his dining room.
Spaghett!
What Oscar can’t follow ball because he lives in a trash can or something?
Brother it’s NYC, that’s a studio apartment that costs $2800 a month.
They’re a Knicks fan. That’s where they live.
Lmaooo
Ok this just feels like stalking
Kinda hard not to notice Slenderman irl, even if you’re not intending to stalk him
Sure but doesn’t mean you need to film him and post it on the internet like it’s voyeur porn
he’s an nba player in public in nyc. he doesn’t care
One of the reasons celebrities like living in NYC is because most people leave them alone
That’s why he should work and live in NYC then. Tourists are fair game.
Trade Kat for Wemby? But just for the next 11 days.
How dare you.
I’ll visit you in your sleep
That has nothing to do with the point I’m making
Accepting something and not caring are not the same thing. It’s not a public event, the worst part of social media culture is the “turn everyone into a stalker” app. Like dude, try minding your fucking own.
how do you know how he feels?
99% of us would take a video or pic if we saw him in the wild.
There are so many pictures of him already, I’m totally satisfied with what’s currently available
I feel like even if he wasn’t an internationally famous NBA star playing in the Finals tonight I might try to surrpetitiously sneak a pic anyway, dude is like 100 feet tall that’s pretty wild on its own.
Tall large skinny dude in the city is easy to spot out
I figure he could just hide amongst the other skyscrapers
I really hate that everything is filmed now
If Shaq was drawing in the park in the 90s people would have filmed and took pictures.
I mean some big man smearing his own feces on a canvas in broad daylight is bound to get some attention.
nothings safe, my wife bought a smart toilet that connects to wifi. it gives us health metrics by visually analyzing your poops via a little camera under the lip of the seat.
im tempted to eat feces so i can see how the app analyzes the nutritional contents of poop²
What the fuck
Hmmm
ScatVision3000?
its actually “Know-shit Sherlock”
Somebody get this man a spoon because now I want to know the results also.
🎵 I’m your biggest fan I’ll follow you until you love me Papa-paparazzi 🎵
Damn, blast from the past. Gaga really was a force in that period, right?
It’s definitely stalking but also, we apparently don’t have a right to privacy in a public place. Which feels weird.
I think the concept of privacy in public places is a more modern thought. We have less privacy than we have ever had, so we guard it a lot more jealously. I don’t think people cared about being in photos that much in the past, but now that everybody has a camera at all times it’s a bigger concern.
My bigger question is how the hell did he get inside what appears to be Gramercy Park
It’s Wemby, dude. You’d think the Spurs can pull a few strings and get him access.
I’m sure it’s not that hard to get hooked up if you’re a celebrity generational superstar.
Or scripted PR. Silver loves his social media highlight clips. They’re propping this kid up as Next and this is a great way to get young people hooked for the long ride.
Honestly good for him to enjoy the outdoors and drawing like this.
He’s with his two siblings, isn’t he? Watching this feels intrusive.
Imagine celebs trying to have normal lives! The audacity… /s
Let’s give him some privacy, guys.
*upvotes post for more visibility
*reposts video
[deleted]
The two people he’s with are on their phones. This website loves to glaze euros
That could be anybody
It’s clearly Yuki Kawamura
hahaha… genuinely lol’d
I kind of hope he was just doodling a stick figure of himself
“This appears to be a doodle of myself as a cowboy”
All his self portraits are stick figures of himself dunking on stick figure Chet.
stick figure chet is just regular chet
Stick figured Chet had almost number of points in G7 as regular Chet, so it tracks.
Lmao
He’s not actually drawing anything. He’s just writing Chet a note that says:
“U suck dawg lmao”
Ahh the smellascope
A stick figure would be a realism style
It’s just dickbutt
He’s probably drawing Bart
Pencils down, pruneface.
How can we be sure that’s really him?
Could be any 7’5” Frenchman tbh
Yeah there’s so many 8 foot Frenchies
8 foot Frenchie farts would clear city blocks.
Yup that’s Rudy gobert. Case closed
Is that you John Wayne? Is this me?
Damn man, I really like this kid. I hope he bounces back in Game 3
I like him and I hope he does not
We good. He can bounce back next year.
I like you and I hope the Knicks lose today
The most civil fan interaction to date.
I hope he drops a Ice Trae bow at the end lol
Next year hopefully
I judge people who film this kinda stuff so hard
Honestly not so bad if this person only recorded from afar and didn’t bother him.
Could be worse.
vic has come to NY and touched more grass than some actual Knicks fans have touched since summer started
I touch grass everyday that isn’t a playoff game!
It must suck being famous, I would hate for someone to film me like this
“That is why no one will remember your name.” -Achilles (Troy)
You sack of wine!
I remember seeing a video of somebody recording LeBron son sleeping on a plane and it’s like what’s the purpose of that.
I’m a bit surprised he doesn’t have any sort of security with him
his security is sitting on the bench with him. get close enough and you’d find out lol
This also looks like Gramercy Park which is not publicly accessible
Security looks like his brother and sister. Must be decoy siblings to fool us.
Does that mean that Wemby has the key, key to Gramercy Park?
How much money we talking about for people who have access to this park?
if you are guest of Gramercy hotel nearby, you can also ask for a key into the park. The condo around that part of town goes goes for around 1 to 2 millions. But you are paying like $6000 per month for HOA fee. It is not cheap.
Ballpark $5 million net worth minimum
$5 mil is a nightmare Greg
It is. That’s why there’s no security
You’re also not allowed to take pictures / video in there
A park not for the public. Rock on nyc!
Pretty sure that’s gramercy which you need a key to get access to.
His Shaolin training is enough security
Take it easy and relax. Ready to go with a good game 3.
How French of him
I love how he hasn’t had the humanity taken from him by the media. The fact that you see him exploring ALL sides of his self as any young person should is great.
If he was American, you’d have Skip, Stephen, and the talking heads criticizing him nonstop for this.
Oh trust me they are trying lol .
100 identical posts calling this guy ‘performative’, they have to be bots. I don’t want to believe there are actually that many people who are bitter that Wemby doesn’t just seethe in a basement like they do.
I’ll never understand genuinely hating a kid like this, how does any human being do it
People genuinely think Wemby doesn’t actually have hobby or interests. Guy is a clearly nerdy dude who’s really into anime and some people still can’t believe he’s genuinely likes to read draw, or hang out with monks, and just does it for the camera. Weird behavior
In b4 no-ring sports commentating jagoffs start trashing Wemby for not being “passionate,” “having killer instinct,” and doesn’t care about the game.
A player in Pop’s system is taking an interest in the world outside basketball. Shock.
Drawing in a park before one of the biggest games of your life?
He just might begin one of the greatest comebacks in NBA history.
It’s giving Goku before the Cell Games.
That’s it. He’s about to dominate in game 3
“Draw me like one of your French girls.”
That’s Gramercy Park. The only way to get one is by owning or renting property in one of the 39 buildings directly surrounding the park. It’s very private. I wonder who let him in?
Hi, I am Wembanyama. Can I have the key to your park please?
So KG was wrong about him being outside in NY! 😂
Wemby is such a fucking anomaly, not just physically but also mentally.
Im pretty sure this dude is a complete psychopath. We’ve seen his dark side come out a few times already this playoffs.
complete psychopath
Of course a redditor would think the thoughtful guy who goes outside and draws and plays chess is a psychopath
Wemby is on some legit psycho shit, I bet if the FBI raided his house they’d find he doesn’t even have a steam account.
shudder
Straight to jail
Yeah I think “French” is a much better way to describe him.
I think he’s a psychopath only on the court. He seems like a pretty chill guy who’d rather stay home than go drinking, that kind of vibes
Huh;
lol do you mean mental anomaly for a professional athlete bc of his hobbies?
Seems like a normal kid having fun sometimes.
This is such a fucking funny thing to comment under a video of a man drawing
Bro spends free time leveling up his side quest
Dude leave the fucking guy alone, let him chill in the park
It’s hard for me to root against this guy! Wemby I hope you win a bunch of chips .. starting next year
he’s about to cast his ultimate
This is so French
Dude really is the Kareem of the current generation lol
When I’m in a performative male competition and my opponent is Victor Wembanyama
Weird to call him performative from this, when he’s clearly not the one who filmed and posted it. It’s an invasion of privacy. Also, he’s in the NBA finals at 22 years old. God forbid, he has a hobby to relax in between games.
when you’re 7’5 your entire existence is performative
Wembenyama photographed reading feminist literature in Williamsburg
Day of Game 4 we’ll be seeing this and Reddit will call it heroic
Would you be prefer him to be sitting in the park vaping and playing Nintendo switch?
The Venn diagram of people who do shit like this, and people who google “ending explained” after every damn movie, is virtually a circle.
Cameraman on Wemby’s payroll.
Love this!!
He’s getting his mind in the right space and ready!
Gramercy Park
NBA players in the wild
Waiting for a non-ball watcher to see him and say “wow you’re tall! Have you ever played basketball?”
Weirdo ass camera man
Let the man live
Just doing side quests out here
Knicks in 4
I’d be terrified if I was a Knicks fan after seeing this
Beating us was his finals.
The creepy video + loud breathing combo…
Spurs in 6
I love this guy
This dude is a warrior poet
There’s another angle, it’s just a giant stick figure standing over a slightly smaller stick figure Chet with X eyes
He is Jean Girard in Talladega Nights.
“Why did you stop the jazz muzeek?”
Gramercy Park?
Anyone?
What a kid
He draws, he reads, he plays chess- Wemban is sort of an Alian to NBA.
Only kinda paint he knows
where is this?
This is weird to record tbh
He needs to be more aggressive /s
Lose 2gms and extend that vacation
He’s drawing the NBA Finals parade in San Antonio after they win 4-2.
the trashcan pov and the shaky heavy breathing really tie this clip together
Scot Bruks sicrit pleis
Hard not to like the kid. I really do wish him the best, after this series is wrapped up. Knicks in 4.
How do you know that’s Wemby?
Smh he should be drinking breastmilk
That’s awesome. If we weren’t so addicted to our phones, we’d do shit like that too.
I hope Mitch and Wemby can ALSO DRAW a damn Offensive plan this time, other than 1 pass and Brrrrick. I support neither team, but that was terrible offensive basketball.
Damn, is this from Oscar the Grouch? Dude in the trashcan.
One thing I find hilarious about the Wemby/Chet ‘rivalry’ is the fact Chet doesn’t read and Wemby is a huge epic fantasy nerd(like myself). They both own very different types of massive books. Chet being picture books for coffee tables and Wemby with his massive 1000 page books
I dunno, it looks *sorta* like him.
fuck this chill ass mf, as a Knicks fan he makes it so hard to hate his 7’5 ass god damn
Found Oscar’s burner account
This dude is absolutely cooked never seen less focus in my life
see, now this is some zen monk type ish he’s on right here, i feel like a 30p-15r-5b game is incoming, all while he has the calm, super-focused, i’m-here-to-bury-you face like Lebron had in the 2012 series when he was down 3-2 to the Celtics in Boston
Man leave him alone lol.
