Victor Wembanyama took his game to a different venue Saturday.

The NBA star, who plays for the San Antonio Spurs and goes by the nickname Wemby, took to X in the early hours of Saturday to ask where the best place to play chess in New York City is.

By 9:30 a.m., Wemby picked his court: Washington Square Park.

“Who wants to meet me at the SW corner of Washington Square park to play chess? Im there,” the forward-center posted.

It was a rainy day in New York Saturday, but that didn’t deter Wemby or his fans from showing up for a game in the park.

Two hours later, he posted a picture at one of the many chess boards in the park, surrounded by his opponents.

“Thanks for everyone who pulled up in the rain,” Wemby posted Saturday morning after the matches.
