Milwaukee Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo Drops LeBron James-Level Prediction For Victor Wembanyama
LeBron James has been the face of the league ever since he was drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2003. But if the Milwaukee Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo is to be believed, the San Antonio Spurs’ Victor Wembanyama is about to get his turn soon.
In the span of 49 games, Wembanyama has truly shined above every other rookie this season. The 7’4″ Spurs star has posted 20.5 points on 46 percent shooting from the field, 10.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.1 steals, and a league-leading 3.2 blocks per contest.
While those numbers look good on paper, Wembanyama’s showdown with Antetokounmpo last January was one for the ages. In that game, the Spurs star notched 27 points, nine rebounds, one assist, one steal, and five blocks. Ultimately, Antetokounmpo had the better performance by posting 44 points, 14 rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and one block in a close 125-121 win for the Bucks.
His talent on both ends of the court has been the only bright spot for San Antonio this season. The Spurs are currently last in the Western Conference with an 11-44 record.
Milwaukee Bucks’ Giannis Antetokoumpo Reveals LeBron James-Worthy Prediction for Victor Wembanyama
Much like James, Wembanyama is seen as a potential star who can carry the NBA for years to come. Antetokounmpo shares that perspective, according to an article by the San Antonio Express News:
“As long as Victor is healthy, the league is his,” the Milwaukee Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo said of the Spurs rookie star. “LeBron is kind of like that,” Antetokounmpo added. “He’s close to the end of his career. … But we have to deal with this problem now moving forward.”
It’s only natural for Antetokounmpo to come up with that opinion after the Bucks’ jaw-dropping battle against San Antonio last January. In any case, NBA fans will have to keep their eyes open for Wembanyama’s career as the years go by.

Teen passenger dies in fiery crash after fleeing driver crashes into Milwaukee roundabout
MILWAUKEE — A police chase that began in West Milwaukee on Sunday morning ended in a fiery crash on Milwaukee’s south side, killing 18-year-old Izack Zavala.
The Medical Examiner’s Office identified Zavala as the passenger who died in the one-car crash at 37th and Mitchell streets. His family said he was a 2025 Milwaukee Public Schools Alexander Hamilton High School graduate who loved soccer and would do anything to help his loved ones.
Provided by family
The West Milwaukee Police Department said officers attempted to pull over the driver for a traffic violation near Miller Park Way and Lincoln Avenue, but the driver fled and crossed into Milwaukee.

About a mile later, police say the fleeing driver hit a roundabout, lost control, and crashed into a tree, ejecting both the driver and passenger.
“If they were trying to avoid one of those, and with the weather being cold and slick, and you hit a patch of ice, and you’re gone. You’re done,” Barbie, who witnessed the aftermath, said.
The loud crash woke up neighbors like Barbie in the middle of the night.

“Like thunder struck the building. The entire building shook. It was insane,” Barbie said.

Looking out her kitchen window, Barbie saw the devastating scene unfold.
“The whole thing just lit up like a torch,” she said.

A day after the flames were extinguished, crash debris still surrounded the tree and Barbie’s backyard.
“The car was right there in the center,” she said.
Zavala’s family said his cousin was driving the vehicle. The 19-year-old driver was taken to the hospital with serious injuries.
Barbie, who has witnessed crashes before, said seeing this one up close was different.
“I’ve seen plenty of crashes, had people that I care about die in crashes, but to see it up close is something different. I feel bad for the kid’s family,” she said.
The witness hopes the tragedy serves as a warning to others who might consider fleeing police.
“I feel for their family, and I wish to God that that wouldn’t have happened, obviously, but there comes a point, ‘what were you doing’, you know?” Barbie said. “I just think that people need to think before they do, and that’s just not a thing anymore.”
TMJ4 asked the West Milwaukee Police Department if it plans to refer charges for the 19-year-old driver who remains seriously injured at the hospital. The department declined to comment, saying it’s still an active investigation.

In Milwaukee County, home sales were down 9.2% in November 2025 compared to November 2024, according to the report.
Still, year-to-date home prices in the four-county Milwaukee metropolitan area rose 7.7% to an average of just over $431,000, the report says.
Here are a few of the oldest homes recently sold in Milwaukee, according to Milwaukee Metropolitan Multiple Listing Services data:
