Victor Wembanyama has quickly become of the most well-known players in the NBA.
For good reason, as the San Antonio Spurs‘ superstar is the tallest player with immense skill the league has ever seen.
It has earned him a spot in some sports and hip-hop crossover, too.
J. Cole, in a track featuring Future, has included Wemby in lyrics as part of his new album.

The song, called Run A Train, is on the album The Fall Off.
“Tryna to make a legal dollar seem harder than guarding Wemby,” J. Cole raps.
The idea: It’s even harder to make it out of a tough financial situation than it is to guard the 7-foot-4 (or taller) basketball superstar.
Considering that basically no one can guard Wembanyama, it’s quite the comparison.
It’s not the only crossover on the album with the NBA, either. J. Cole also shouts out Minnesota Timberwolves forward Naz Reid on a different song.

Wemby was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft out of France.
This season, Wembanyama is averaging 23.9 points, 11.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 2.7 blocks and 0.9 steals per game while shooting a career-best 36.0% from 3-point range.
And now he’s got himself a song lyric to add to the mix — it likely won’t be the last such honor, either.
