Spurs Star Dons 'Spirited Away' Costume Ahead of Road Game

Halloween Costume Pick Shows Spurs Star is a Man of Culture

When San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama stepped off the team plane in Los Angeles on Tuesday, he did so in style. Wembanyama was dressed in a full-length costume from the popular Japanese animated film “Spirited Away.” The costume included a blue kimono, a white sash, and a pair of red geta sandals. Wembanyama completed the look with a long black wig and a white face mask.

Wembanyama's costume choice was a hit with fans and media members alike. Many took to social media to praise Wembanyama's sense of style, while others joked that he was already in the Halloween spirit.

The Inspiration Behind Wemby's Costume Idea

Wembanyama later revealed that he chose to dress up as the character Chihiro from “Spirited Away” because he is a big fan of the film. He said that he was particularly drawn to Chihiro's strength and determination.

“Chihiro is a great character,” Wemby said. “She's strong, she's brave, and she never gives up. I think she's a great role model for kids, and I'm happy to be able to dress up as her.”

Off-Court Interests Reflect Well on Wemby's Character

Wemby's choice of Halloween costume not only shows that he is a man of culture, but it also reflects well on his character. Wemby is a thoughtful and well-rounded individual who is interested in a variety of things outside of basketball.

This is a refreshing change from the stereotype of the one-dimensional athlete. Wemby is a true role model for kids, and he is sure to continue to inspire fans both on and off the court.
