Kendrick Perkins says there are two big men in the NBA who cause Victor Wembanyama serious problems

Kendrick Perkins has identified two NBA big men who pose difficulties for Victor Wembanyama, according to his recent statement to NBA Today. The San Antonio Spurs, led by their young phenom, are currently 10-2 after an impressive 10-game winning streak. Wembanyama's dominant performance, averaging 30.3 points and 4.4 blocks per game, has raised eyebrows throughout the league. However, Perkins remains skeptical about the teenager's invincibility, citing two specific opponents who can trouble him.

Perkins pointed to Karl-Anthony Towns as one of the key players capable of causing trouble for Wembanyama. The duo faced off in the NBA Finals last year, with Towns managing to hold his own against the promising young center. Perkins also mentioned Şengün as another potential problem for Wembanyama, emphasizing that the Turkish big man consistently posts impressive numbers against him. In fact, Şengün often ends up with 20-and-10 type performances when facing Wembanyama.

As the Spurs face a crucial rematch with the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden on Christmas Day, the question remains whether Wembanyama can maintain his unblemished record against these formidable opponents. Towns has been a consistent double-double machine this season, while the Houston Rockets, who previously defeated the Spurs 114-110, are set to clash with the Spurs again in January.

Despite Wembanyama's impressive 25 points and 13 rebounds in that game, Şengün put up 29 points, highlighting the challenges the young star may face ahead.
