Victor Wembanyama named NBA DPOY

Victor Wembanyama has made NBA history by becoming the first player to win the Defensive Player of the Year award unanimously, receiving all 100 first-place votes.

His dominant season saw him lead the league in blocks and transform the Spurs' defensive identity.

Wembanyama's achievement is particularly notable given his age and the fact that he was also a finalist for Rookie of the Year.

Basketball legends have praised his impact on the game, suggesting this award is likely the first of many for the generational talent.
