I just watched Victor Wembanyama outpace Andrew Wiggins on a fast break, but he looked hilariously slow while moving. I get it’s because he has long legs so his strides seem slow, but I can’t imagine his 100m time being fast at all.

    Not too fast from a 100m time perspective. That’s why it’s play speed that truly matters. Wemby has fast play speed. Not all fast dudes are as fast in a game.

    Around 15 mph in their natural habitat. A wild 7 footer can run up to 17 mph when chasing prey.
