Victor Wembanyama scored 40 points, grabbed 13 rebounds, and dished 5 assists in just 26 minutes as the Spurs demolished the Mavericks 139-120.
Victor Wembanyama put on a 26-minute masterclass against the Dallas Mavericks, erupting for 40 points, 13 rebounds, and 5 assists as the Spurs rolled to a 139-120 win.
The game marked Wembanyama's 65th of the season — the threshold to qualify for end-of-season awards like MVP, Defensive Player of the Year, and Most Improved Player. Given the way he's played, he'll be in the conversation for multiple trophies.
San Antonio has now won 14 of its last 15 games and is one of the most dangerous teams heading into the playoffs. Wembanyama is averaging over 28 points, 11 rebounds, and 4 blocks per game, and the Spurs' defense has been elite with him anchoring it. The West better be paying attention.
