Welcome to the Victor Wembanyama experience. Come one, come all, for there is a 7-foot-4 Frenchman who can nutmeg you off the bounce, block your 3-pointers, step back from 3, put back his own stepback in two steps and dunk on you from a standstill outside the restricted area. Behold the human cheat code.

Here, we track the San Antonio Spurs rookie's bi-weekly progress relative to the most anticipated prospects of the past 50 years, using Yahoo Sports' own default fantasy basketball settings to rank their production.

But first a few words ...

Wembanyama climbed into his highest position on these rankings in the penultimate week of his debut campaign — perched behind only fellow Spurs phenomenon David Robinson (the 24-year-old rookie).

Over his last five appearances, Wembanyama is averaging a 29-15-7 and five blocks per game. Since the NBA began logging blocks 50 years ago, nobody else has ever rounded up to those averages in any five-game stretch. And I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility he averages those numbers next season.

The time to maximize Wembanyama's talent has already come, and that means landing a point guard in San Antonio. Learning how desperately he needs a true facilitator was every bit as vital as seeing him exceed all expectations set for him, and it would be a shame to waste more time without a better one.

You have probably seen the numbers by now. Tre Jones is the only traditional setup man on San Antonio's 15-man roster. When Wembanyama has shared the floor with Jones this season, the Spurs have operated like a 55-win team (+4.9 points per 100 possessions). Remove Jones from the lineup, and Wembanyama's charges have played like a seven-win team (-16.3 points per 100 possessions). It could not be more clear.

The rise of Golden State Warriors legend Stephen Curry birthed a golden era of guards. James Harden, Russell Westbrook, Chris Paul and Damian Lillard have left few All-NBA roster spots available for a crop of elite ball-handlers headlined by Kyrie Irving. A new generation, including Luka Dončić, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, De'Aaron Fox, Donovan Mitchell, Ja Morant and Trae Young, has further crowded the field.

It seems the league is loaded with playmakers, which should leave plenty of options available this summer, when the Spurs can create maximum salary cap space. Except, most everyone but San Antonio has made a longterm commitment to their floor generals, and the market is not quite as robust as you would imagine.

The list of available free agents includes Jones' older brother, Tyus, and Monte Morris, a pair of assist-to-turnover superstars who have spent the bulk of their careers as reserves. The elder Jones is averaging a career-best 7.3 assists (against just one turnover) per game in his first season as a full-time starter on the lowly Washington Wizards. Any other starting job is better, but would one brother want to back up the other?

The trade market is a better bet. The Atlanta Hawks and Cleveland Cavaliers will have decisions to make on All-Star backcourts crowded by Trae Young, Dejounte Murray, Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland. Either Young or Murray and Mitchell or Garland could be shaken loose this summer for the right price. The passing ability of Young and Garland should be targets for the Spurs, who have all of their own first-round draft picks, plus the rights to eight more, to make offers other teams will have a tough time turning down.

If those attempts fall short, Jaden Ivey, Payton Pritchard and Austin Reaves are a trio of players who may be amenable to more significant roles, so long as their incumbent teams are also willing to part with them before they reach their full potential. Any one of them could be worth a less costly flier in a trade scenario.

Or, the Spurs could go the stopgap route. The Warriors will likely decline Chris Paul's $30 million option for next season. The 38-year-old is still averaging 9.3 assists per 36 minutes The Minnesota Timberwolves might also shed salary this summer, when Mike Conley's new two-year, $21 million contract extension will begin. Neither is a longterm solution. Either would be a tremendous learning experience for Wembanyama.

Please, San Antonio, we beg of you: Find a point guard worthy of Wembanyama's talent this summer.

We will find out if it all comes out in the wash. That is what the tracker is for. Before we get started, a key:
