Spurs Star Victor Wembanyama Eyes High Kick Record

Victor Wembanyama says he is entirely "confident" he could break the high-kick world record after a viral warmup where he kicked a net stuffed with basketballs before a Spurs game. The official Guinness mark is 2.94 meters, about 9.65 feet, set by Jessie Frankson in 2000, while Kadour Ziani is credited with an unofficial 9'9". Trainer Guillaume Alquier has been using Ben Patrick's Knees Over Toes work to boost Wembanyama's leg strength and flexibility. Merlin sees a rare mix of natural length and carefully built mobility. The Spurs will understandably limit risky moves because of knee health, yet a supervised, single record attempt would be a low-risk way to showcase his athletic range. If his knees and training hold up, the moment could be both a headline and a proof point about how far the big man can stretch.
