Wembanyama and Henderson shine in first exhibition matchup

These two 18-year-old prospects put on a show after French club Metropolitans 92 and G League Ignite agreed to play a pair of exhibition games. People hoped for a show and they got it as it was a very entertaining game between the projected number one and number two draft picks.

Victor Wembanyama balled out with 37 points off of 11-of-20 from the field, including 7-of-11 from beyond the arc. Even more impressive than that was him blocking five shots that showed off of his skill and supernatural wingspan.

Scoot Henderson, who showed off his driving abilities and good-looking jump shot, also balled out with 28 points. He went 11-of-21 from the field to guide his team, the Ignite, to a victory.

The final score was 122-115. A very competitive game between the top two prospects of the 2023 NBA Draft.
