NBA fans are cracking up at Victor Wembanyama sporting a new look after losing to OKC. Wemby shocked fans when he showed up with a shaved head, easily becoming a meme template on social media.
Fans have been poking fun at Wemby’s new look and also noting the pettiness of the baller. It looks like the defeat at the hands of the OKC really got on the ‘Alien’s’ nerves, leading him to simply shave off all his hair before the Bucks matchup.
“Wemby must really hate Chet man. One loss and bro shaved all his hair off and got back in his Shaolin monk bag (crying emoji x2, skull emoji)” HaterReport tweeted.

“He looks like he’s about to teach Aang how to earthbend (laughing with tears emoji, crying emoji)” one fan said, referring to monk Gyatso from Avatar.
“that’s not it at all, our host is balding so he’s trying to normalize the transition (heart-break emoji)” one fan theorized.
“Deada** had to come back like Hanamichi,” one fan called to the character from Slam Dunk.
Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs took a nasty beating at the hands of the Thunder a couple of days back. Wemby himself only managed a total of 17 on the board, while his rival, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander contributed an impressive 34.
NBA Fans Continue To Compare Victor Wembanyama To Different Bald Characters
NBA fans are clearly having a field day making fun of Victor Wembanyama’s bald head. Fans have been digging through the archives, comparing Wemby’s bald look to that of many other main characters.
“GI Jane,” one fan pointed out.
“that’s the 09 Randy Orton fade right there,” one fan said.
“Hey baldie, that’s a bald head. Bald (ninja emoji)” another fan joked.
Meanwhile, many other fans highlighted that Victor Wembanyama actually shaves his head every single year, and that this is not the first time he has gone bald. Wemby going bald seemed to immediately work for the Spurs after the team beat Milwaukee in the very next round.
Nevertheless, the Spurs have OKC as their biggest rival, and Wemby will be eagerly waiting for their next face-off, which is due sometime next month. Hopefully, his bald dome will prove to be a good-luck charm then.
