The NBA lists Victor Wembanyama's height at 7-foot-3, but sure enough, it looks like the San Antonio Spurs center is taller than what the league claims.

Ever since he entered the NBA in 2023, Wemby's height has always been a hot topic. There were reports that he's actually 7-foot-4, and according to ESPN, he's 7-foot-5 in shoes.

Wembanyama also boasts an 8-foot wingspan, making him an absolute physical freak. That being said, it's no surprise that Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James gave him the "alien" nickname.

Now, as Wembanyama attended the Fanatics Fest in New York, his towering height caught attention once again. This time, it was because of his moment with popular streamer Kai Cenat.

Fans simply couldn't help but notice the massive height difference after Wembanyama met Cenat, who reportedly stands at 5-foot-3.

"Bro just made me feel short through the screen," a fan said of Wembanyama. Another one said, "I’m lookin up at at wemby on my phone lmfaooo."

"Wemby is so tall," a fan simply stated.

A supporter remarked, "Dude towers over people without even trying."

"Nah kai is like half of his body," a social media user shared in disbelief.

A sixth poster even expressed belief that Wembanyama got taller, "Y'all kno wemby got taller to."

It remains to be seen if Wemby has actually gotten taller as many fans believe . It is worth noting, however, that Victor Wembanyama was the second tallest NBA player last season, tied with Bol Bol and only behind Memphis Grizzlies big man Zach Edey, who is 7-foot-4.
