They named it after a bulk carrier (one of the largest ships in the world at the time) that sank off the coast of Japan in a typhoon. It was carrying almost 100 thousand tons of iron ore from the mine I worked at for 10 years.

Or maybe just a place in England.

Don't mind me.

I looked it up cause I was curious and knew Wembanyama was really tall, Tremont Waters #51 is 5’11” and Victor Wembanyama #1 is listed at 7’3” but he’s just 19 years old and a recent article came out saying he’s grown and now 7’5” with shoes on. He’s projected to be the #1 pick in the NBA draft so that’s likely why people were so interested in that.
