"Sounds like he's whispering": Grizzlies rookie GG Jackson narrates hilarious Victor Wembanyama trash-talking incident

The tale of Victor Wembanyama continues as the Memphis Grizzlies rookie GG Jackson told reporters the story of his unique encounter. Given his unusual height, things are far different from how Wemby experiences it. This is why when he talked trash to Jackson, it was a different experience.

The race for the Rookie of the Year has been incredible. There's no doubt that Wemby is the clear-cut winner of the award, given how he's played for the San Antonio Spurs. Many have named Wembanyama as their choice for the recipient of the award, making his rookie year memorable.

It's also memorable as Jackson shared a story of his encounter with the 7-foot-4 Frenchman this season. The rookie joked around with a few reporters and shared that because of his height, the words that come out of his mouth sound like whispers.

"He's so high in the air," Jackson said (via Matt Infield on X). "When he talks trash, he sounds like he's whispering. He was like, 'Go back up. Go. You scared. You scared. You scared.'"

After joking about Wemby's height, Jackson gave credit to how the French star plays defense. According to the rookie, the Spurs center has a chance to be one of the greatest defenders in the NBA.

"He's definitely gonna be one of the greatest defenders of all time when it's all said and done."
