With his towering 7-foot-3 height, it's hard to miss the young NBA star. After all, it's difficult to find someone taller than him at the event — even if it featured some of the best athletes in the world today.
On Saturday, Wembanyama was already trending online after he shared a moment with streamer Kai Cenat. Considering that the media personality stands at just 5-foot-3, the massive height difference between him and the Spurs center was immediately noticeable.
Sure enough, Wembanyama's incredible size remained a hot topic throughout the event. When he appeared on stage with LeBron James during a live taping of "The Shop," his height became the focus of attention once again.
After Wembanyama took a group photo alongside James, fans couldn't help but react to how small he made the 6-foot-9 Lakers forward look.
"Wemby so tall he make bron look 5'11," a commenter wrote. Another one said, "Bro LeBron comin up to Wemby's shoulder is craazy to see!"

A fan added, "6'9" and still short. Wemby is a giant amongst men." A fourth follower echoed a similar sentiment, noting, "Making someone 6'9 look small is crazy."
"lol Wemby make bron regular height," a social media user wrote.
A poster remarked, "Why Victor always making the king to look short."
"Wemby making tall guys look short," a fan shared.
An Instagram user stated, "Wemby tall [expletive]."

Prior to joining the NBA in 2023, Victor Wembanyama was listed at 7-foot-4 (7-foot-5 in shoes), per ESPN. However, the official NBA page has him at 7-foot-3. With the latest photo of Wemby and James, though, it wouldn't be a surprise if speculation starts that the youngster is actually taller than his listed height.

The Legally Blonde actress is currently starring in Larter is getting real on Instagram. In a new post featuring a mirror selfie, the Final Desti"nation actress opened up about body confidence and shared all of the ways she helps herself feel her best. In the photo, Larter posed in front of the mirror in a red string bikini and a cross necklace in her on-set trailer. "For all my ladies out there that work hard to be their best everyday," she wrote in the caption. "Let's hear how you do it? I had to shoot a bikini scene for my show last week." Larter is currently starring as Angela in Paramount+'s Landman alongside Billy Bob Thornton, Jon Hamm, and Demi Moore. "Playing a character that is so comfortable in her body drives me," Larter went on. The actress then explained her routine that helps her feel her best before shooting the scene. She begins by getting to bed by 11 p.m., ready for her 5:30 a.m. start. She takes magnesium and gaba before bed and starts the day with celery juice and coffee. Before heading to set, she finds time to go to the gym. "I do a 30 minute intervals run and 10 minutes of core," she wrote. After her shower, she dunks her face in ice water then "slathers" it in oil. On set, she has "another coffee, lemon water, eggs and Turkey bacon." She went on, "Put on Angela's diamond cross which is my suit of armor for this woman. 10 minutes of deep breathing to break down the BS I tell myself and redirect my energy to a calm, confident, and creative state while I look over my material. And then go walk the walk!" Larter, who turned 49 earlier this year, is best-known for her roles in Final Destination. You probably also remember her iconic turn as Brooke Windham in Legally Blonde. Larter previously told New Beauty that "getting into shape" for Angela was "huge." "I knew I needed to get there before I even got into the wardrobe fittings," she said. "I asked myself: 'How am I going to feel the most confident in my body at my age knowing that this woman's going to be wearing a lot of bikinis and she's so comfortable in it?' It was all of that."

Jaire Alexander's dad reveals the rift behind the Packers exit
Had the Green Bay Packers offered a contract comparable to what Jaire Alexander received from the Baltimore Ravens, the two-time Pro Bowler/Second-Team All-Pro is still rolling with the Cheeseheads. That's what Landis Alexander, Jaire's father, said during a recent appearance on KBN ESPN Milwaukee's Kyle, Brust, & Nortman show. It still seems surreal (or unreal). After seven seasons and some back and forth, Jaire was released by the only NFL team he had ever played for up until that point on June 9. He put pen to paper and agreed to a one-year deal in Baltimore that would pay him up to $6 million with incentives. That arrangement came nine days later. Advertisement The deal is done. Both sides have parted ways. Still, whenever a name as big as the one belonging to Jaire is tied to stories where contract negotiations seemingly spiral, questions are sometimes answered, and those were exactly the questions asked of Jaire's father during a 13-minute chat that has since seen a ton of discussion. Jaire Alexander's father offers some behind-the-scenes access to his son's exit from Green Bay and his arrival in Baltimore. What went wrong? Is it possible cooler heads could have prevailed? What exactly happened? Landis Alexander was gracious in answering all of the questions. In terms of the train veering off its tracks, it sounds like the culprit is what some might expect. Advertisement Jaire's team understood his injury history would impair negotiations, but they still hoped he'd be offered guaranteed money. Green Bay wasn't willing to offer any, and the rest, as they say, is history. Landis believes, based on the contract's structure, that a 'sign and trade' was what The Pack was attempting. He believes his son's teammates wanted to see him back in the fold. He also believes Green Bay believed they had given Jaire so much and that they were disappointed because he wasn't playing very often. "I get that part, but I don't like that narrative that was put out there (saying) we didn't want to take a pay cut. That's just ridiculous because, in business, you have to be available, not half the season. (The signing team wants) you out there. Injuries happen, and he's not able to do that. We get the fact that you don't want to pay ($17 million in guarantees), but we definitely don't want zero." Here's how we make long stories shorter. Often, these conversations come down to money. It was no different in this instance, but there is another twist here. Jaire may have been given some misinformation about his injury. The Ravens visit the Packers in Week 17. Naturally, the guys asked Landis if Jaire has that game circled on his calendar. The response was classy: "No... We love those guys. We love that team. We love that city"... Fair enough... But, something tells us Jaire absolutely has that game vs. his former team circled. How could he not, right?
