Trotsky. Ceaușescu. Khrushchev. Sadat. Gorbachev. Hussein. Gaddafi. And now, Harrison. Figureheads come and figureheads go, am I right, comrades?

For nearly three quarters in Chicago on Monday, Victor Wembanyama looked ordinary – well, at least for his extraordinary standards. The 7-foot-5 forward moved carefully, probing but never truly penetrating the Chicago Bulls’ defense.
