NBA prodigy Victor Wembanyama has gone viral once again.<\/p>\n

The 7-foot-4 Wembanyama, who plays for Metropolitans 92 in France and is the likely top pick in this year\u2019s NBA draft, was dribbling the ball on the left wing stepping back to shoot a 3-point jump shot during Sunday\u2019s game.<\/p>\n

The step-back 3-pointer would clank iron, but the 19-year-old charged the basket, caught the ball in mid-air as if it were an alley-oop, and slammed it home in one motion.<\/p>\n

Wembanyama may be the most sought-after NBA prospect since LeBron James in 2003.<\/p>\n

He is widely expected to be the top prospect chosen in the NBA Draft on June 22.<\/p>\n

But his destination will be decided on May 16 when ping-pong balls are drawn at the NBA Draft Lottery.<\/p>\n
