Victor Wembanyama Unleashes Shaved Head in a Photo Taken at a Shaolin Temple in China

Victor Wembanyama is on a quest for enlightenment this offseason. The San Antonio Spurs‘ young star is spending his summer visiting a Shaolin Temple in China, where he has shaved his head and shared meals with the monks.

Wemby has always embodied a “Renaissance Man.” He has a long-standing passion for creating art and reading—one of his favorite authors is fantasy writer Brandon Sanderson—and his responses to questions about basketball or life often demonstrate a philosophical outlook.

In the previous season, he dedicated much of his time to preparing for and competing in the Olympics with Team France, which made it to the gold-medal match but ultimately lost to the United States and Stephen Curry’s remarkable performance.

A diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis in his right shoulder led to an early end to his season in February. With a more conventional offseason in front of him, he has opted to take some time to travel, including a visit to the Great Wall of China. At 21, he has showcased a desire to become one of the legends in basketball while also seeking to enrich his experiences off the court.
