On May 21, 2026, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander offered a pointed quip about Isaiah Hartenstein’s recent defensive stand against Victor Wembanyama, saying he was “not sure it was good.”
The remark surfaced during a media availability in the wake of video clips highlighting Hartenstein’s attempt to slow the towering rookie. Gilgeous-Alexander’s tongue-in-cheek assessment quickly circulated on social media, drawing reactions from fans and analysts alike.
