Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs triumphed over the Brooklyn Nets, with Wembanyama making history by setting a new NBA record.
The San Antonio Spurs shook off back-to-back losses to the Knicks and 76ers with a gritty performance Friday night, defeating the Brooklyn Nets 96-87. With his first block and three-pointer, Wembanyama broke an NBA record, becoming the first player with 22 consecutive games featuring at least one block and one made three-pointer. The previous record, set by Kristaps Porziņģis in 2019, now belongs to the 7’4” phenom.
Wembanyama finished with 19 points, six rebounds, and five blocks, asserting himself as a two-way force against a Nets team that couldn’t contain his length and athleticism. The Spurs' supporting cast also stepped up. Keldon Johnson delivered a steady performance, Devin Vassell flirted with a triple-double, and Julian Champagnie provided key contributions off the bench in the victory.
