Victor Wembanyama doubles down on desire to win NBA MVP award originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama isn’t shying away from the fact that he wants to win the NBA MVP award this season. In fact, he’s doubling down on his desire.
Last month, Wembanyama laid out three reasons why he feels like he’s deserving of the league’s highest individual honor, and following San Antonio’s 127-113 win over the Golden State Warriors this week, the French phenom made sure to emphasize how deeply he cares about winning the award in order to take his place among the game's greats.
"I do care deeply about it," Wembanyama said. "I think that of the greats that are in the Hall of Fame -- or the best of all time -- they have fought and grabbed everything they could grab early on in their career. If I want to make my spot among the greats, I got to try to not miss any occasion to put my name up there."
