HalloWemby: Will Victor Wembanyama continue his Halloween costume trend?

During his young NBA career, Victor Wembanyama has made a name for himself on and off the court -- including with his viral Halloween fits.

In 2023, the San Antonio Spurs star arrived for his first Halloween game in a costume reminiscent of the fictional supernatural creature Slenderman. He wound up dropping 18 points, 8 rebounds and 4 blocks in a 115-114 victory over the Phoenix Suns.

Last year, he took it to another level, dressing as No-Face, a character from the Academy Award-winning animated film "Spirited Away." Wembanyama wore an all-black one-piece fit and covered his face with the trademark mask.

The costume preceded a 25-point, 9-rebound, 7-assist performance plus 5 steals and blocks each against the Utah Jazz -- the second time in his career he put up at least five each in five stat categories.

However, despite the Halloween success in the past, fans unfortunately will have to wait until next year to see Wembanyama on the holiday. The Spurs played on Thursday against the Miami Heat, prompting the center to hint earlier in the week that he might not show up in a costume this year.

"We don't got a game on Halloween," he said Tuesday. "So, we don't get to see a costume this year, unfortunately."

Wembanyama stayed true to his word, arriving without a costume on Thursday, putting an end to his trend. Fortunately for Halloween enthusiasts, there's always next year.
