Is Victor Wembanyama's injury history concerning?

Victor Wembanyama is pretty hyped right now, but is his injury concerning?

Injury History:

Jun 2022 - Psoas muscle (lower lumbar region of the spine) - missed part of French playoffs, Eurobasket

Dec 2021 - Shoulder contusion - missed 2 months

Nov 2021 - Finger break - missed 1 month

Dec 2020 - Stress fracture in fibula - 3 months


At 7'3, he's going to be one of the tallest NBA players ever. In the history of the league, there are 26 players at that height or taller with only 12 playing for at least 2 seasons.

The only stars in that bracket are Kristaps Porziņģis, Yao Ming, Arvydas Sabonis, and Ralph Sampson. All of them were very talented but were burdened with injuries. It's clearly a concern for players of that height.

As of now, the only ones that worry me are the stress fracture and the back injury both of which aren't a good thing for bigs.

Is his injury history concerning?
