Victor Wembanyama joins Las Vegas Summer League roster of the Spurs

NBA's Victor Wembanyama slapped by security guard while signing autographs.

The NBA Summer League is in full swing, and fans are eagerly awaiting the highly anticipated debut of Victor Wembanyama, the No. 1 overall pick from the San Antonio Spurs. Although he has not played in the first two games, Wembanyama has officially been included in the Spurs' summer league roster, as announced on Twitter by the team.

Wembanyama has made his way to Las Vegas and has been spotted signing autographs for fans on the pedestrian bridges scattered throughout the strip. During his time in Las Vegas, he encountered pop singer Britney Spears, who was eager to take a photo with the rising basketball star. However, to her surprise, she was met with a slap to the face by the Spurs' Director of Team Security, who apparently did not recognize the internationally famous pop star. The force of the slap caused Spears to fall to the ground and her glasses to be knocked off her head.

Despite the incident, Spears maintained her composure and returned to her table. The security guard who hit her approached her and apologized, explaining the challenges of dealing with swarming fans. Spears reportedly accepted his apology. However, her own security team got involved and spoke to the Spurs' security director. Ultimately, Spears' team filed a report with the Las Vegas Metro Police Department, accusing the security director of battery. It is unclear if Spears played a role in the filing of the report.

As for Wembanyama, he has been adjusting to his new life in San Antonio. After being drafted, he received a warm welcome from fans at the airport and was introduced to the city at the famous River Walk. Wembanyama has also been actively playing, leading his former French team, Mets 92, to the LNB Pro A finals. However, it is expected that he will make his Summer League debut this Friday against the Charlotte Hornets. This game will also feature Brandon Miller, the second overall pick in this year's NBA Draft.

In conclusion, the NBA Summer League is abuzz with excitement as fans eagerly await Victor Wembanyama's debut. Despite a recent incident involving Britney Spears, Wembanyama remains focused on his new life in San Antonio and is ready to showcase his skills on the court. The upcoming game against the Charlotte Hornets will provide an exciting matchup between Wembanyama and Brandon Miller, adding to the anticipation surrounding these talented rookies.
