Wemby reached 500 career blocks in his 143rd career game — the only players to reach that mark faster are Manute Bol (121), David Robinson (124), and Mark Eaton (136)

Note: Basketball Reference’s [blocks data is 100% complete back to 1983-84](https://www.basketball-reference.com/data/stats-coverage-game.html).
the fact that he is there surrounded by people from the 80s-90s when the game wasnt as 3 pointer heavy as it is now says a lot
People still underrate the admiral. Absolute dominant freak of nature.
What about stats for “holy shit I’m not gonna even bother to attempt a shot near this man”? Swear he’s averaging like 20PG there
I know players aren’t attacking him in the paint as much but I miss when he would go on a block streak of like 5 a game. It feels like it’s been off lately. Mins restrictions probably affecting it.
Bol was the OG stick man, but is arguably bottom 3 on this list from an offensive standpoint
Unfortunately we’ll probably never know how many blocks guys like Chamberlain, Russell, and Mikan had. Still impressive though.
Love me some David!! ❤️
Pour un français amateur de basket,quel plaisir de lire autant de post sur wemby.
