Frustrated monster newcomer? The reason is because of my teammates. Victor Wembanyama Shooting Efficiency Down, Why Jeremy Sohan?

2m22 tall, and 2m44 wingspan. It's a monstrous physical condition.
His physical condition is a big man, but his technique is guard level. He also has outside shots. The dribbling technique is also good. Therefore, LeBron James, who is considered the best talent in the NBA, is like a unicorn. No one can judge Wembanyama's talent.'
He averaged 21.4 points, 10.6 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 3.6 blocks and 1.2 steals per game last season. He became the second rookie to lead the league in block shooting since the 1985-1986 season.
There was a problem with attack efficiency, but defense was already evaluated as the best in the league.
This is his second year. He is expected to become a superstar in an All-Star class.
The outside environment was also good. San Antonio launched the 'Wembanyama Project'. Got genius point guard and passmaster Chris Paul. I put a pole on it to maximize Wembleyama's attack efficiency.
There were also personal efforts.
ESPN reported that Victor Wembanyama gained about 25 pounds (11 kilograms). He said that he was able to maintain sufficient balance even during the body contact process.
The biggest weakness was poor weight. I've made up for this weakness.
However, the performance in 10 games is less than expected.
The average score per game is 18.3 points, 10.2 rebounds, a three-point shooting success rate of 28.2%, and a field goal rate of 42.5%.
He played more than 30 minutes this season.
Wembanyama played 29.4 minutes last season. He averaged 21.4 points, 10.6 rebounds, and a 3-point shooting field goal rate of 32.5% and a field goal rate of 46.5%. The overall record has been lowered.
There is a reason for the decline.
ESPN said on the 11th (Korea time) 'Wembanyama's average score and field goal rate have declined. Frontcourt teammate Jeremy Sohan has grown strongly. Sohan had a 19% offensive share last season, but raised it to 24% this season. Efficiency has also increased. Naturally, Wembanyama spent more time on the outskirts and 'Sohan's average shooting distance was reduced from 3.35m to 2.1m, according to the basketball reference. On the other hand, Wembanyama's shooting distance increased from 3.9 meters to 4.8 meters, the report said.
However, Sohan is absent for a long time due to a broken finger.
