Victor Wembanyama wasn't just good during the San Antonio Spurs ' 125-92 win over the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday night. He was historic as his 40 points broke Hall of Famer George Gervin's previous franchise record for the most points scored in a season-opening game.

The Spurs' superstar put on a dazzling show against Mavericks, making plays over Anthony Davis and other Dallas defenders in a statement victory.

In an interview on "First Things First," Olajuwon revealed that he initially believed Wembanyama was only joking when he mentioned training with him. After all, the All-Star already had a diverse skill set that allowed him to bring the ball up himself, shoot three-pointers and even score inside.

With the Panini Prizm brand being held in high esteem by basketball collectors, it's not surprising that the next most graded Wembanyama card falls under that umbrella. This card has a 61% gem rate, with there being 10,944 PSA 10s. In a PSA 10, this card ranges from $30 to $45.

This includes former NBA All-Star DeMarcus Cousins, who gave his strong opinion on Wembanyama on Thursday. "One game in, I'm going with Wemby as No. 1 [player in the NBA]. I saw all I needed to see. He's number one for me," Cousins said during Thursday's episode of "Run It Back." "It ain't five, four, three or two."
