Victor Wembanyama to Start Using Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s Iconic Move as per Reports
Victor Wembanyama wishes to improve his attacking skills by using Kareem Abdul-Jabbar‘s iconic skyhook move. Abdul-Jabbar scored many points with this move and rarely missed when he attempted it.
He was able to use his big size and long arms to his benefit, shooting over his defender with success every time. Abdul-Jabbar’s move was unique, and no one could do it as well as him. However, Wembanyama has the right abilities and potential to learn it. In a recent interview, Wembanyama claims he wants to add the skyhook move to his skills.

Wembanyama can shoot from far, though still improving, and is strong in the mid-range game, finishing well on drives. He excels in one-on-one situations, hardly missing a shot when he creates space. If he learns Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s skyhook, his offensive game could reach new heights. Wembanyama is more versatile than Abdul-Jabbar, who was a traditional center. If he masters the skyhook, he can become an insane player.
Wembanyama has the talent to master the move
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s skyhook was about skill and grace, not just power. At 18, Victor Wembanyama already has those qualities. He’s a tall French center with great potential. Wembanyama is a dedicated learner, both on and off the court. He knows the importance of staying focused and not letting the hype affect him. With these traits, he can surely add Kareem’s skyhook to his game.
