Victor Wembanyama shocked the NBA world with his enormous size when he entered the league. Despite being used to seeing tall players around the court, Wemby’s 7’4″ stature took fans aback as the Frenchman is even taller than Shaq. Wemby is currently in his second season, but his height still grabs attention as the star meets new people. During the San Antonio Spurs tour to Paris, Wemby went viral for meeting WNBA player Cameron Brink.
Los Angeles Sparks star Cameron Brink is among the tallest players in the WNBA. On the court the 23-year-old outshines others but that was not the case here. As the WNBA second overall pick stood next to the NBA first overall pick, the 6’4″ Brink looked ordinary. Seemingly, the duo met for the first time as Brink was at courtside to watch Spurs vs. Indiana Pacers.
Brink has been on the sidelines for a while since her ACL tear in June. The injury concluded Brink’s debut season. Since then while recovering, the star has been involved in off-court activities. Brink was one of the many guests who attended the NBA Paris contest. Other than Brink, basketball personalities such as Tony Parker, Candace Parker, and more were spotted enjoying the game.

Victor Wembanyama put on a show for the fellow hoopers in attendance. The Spurs dominated the Pacers with a 140-110 win led by Wemby. The 21-year-old was happy to be in his home country dropping a 30-point double-double. Wemby’s stat line read 30 points, 11 rebounds, six assists, and five blocks.
Victor Wembanyama and Cameron Brink’s meeting went viral
Cameron Brink is one of the most stunning players in the WNBA. Hence, her attendance at any game always manages to grab the internet’s attention. Just a few weeks ago, Brink was at courtside to watch the matchup between the Miami Heat and Utah Jazz at the Kaseya Center. The ongoing joke about Brink’s effect on players was again brought up during the Paris game.
Back in May, Brink attended the LA Dodgers game and met Shohei Ohtani. That meetup also went viral as Ohtani spoke fluent English with Brink. Now, after Brink was spotted smiling with Wemby, the fans connected the dots. Check out some of the reactions of fans on Twitter.

The Pacers will get a chance to get back at the Spurs on Saturday again in Paris. As Wembanyama is using his 2024 Olympics experience, it will certainly be a tough battle between the teams. Fans will also be curious to see which stars attend the next game.
