Victor Wembanyama, the San Antonio Spurs standout, is on track to earn a place in the NBA All-Star Weekend as fan voting approaches its conclusion. The league's new format eliminates traditional starters and reserves, opting instead for a selection of 24 players who will be divided into three teams, drafted by basketball legends Shaquille O'Neal, Charles Barkley, and Kenny Smith.

Currently, Wembanyama is positioned fourth in the Western Conference Frontcourt standings, which places him in a favorable position to participate in the All-Star festivities. His teammates, including Chris Paul, are vocally supportive of his selection, acknowledging his outstanding performance and potential as a future Defensive Player of the Year.
