The San Antonio Spurs defeated the Golden State Warriors, marking their 10th consecutive win and 15th in 16 games. Victor Wembanyama made history as the first Spur to achieve 40-point double-doubles in consecutive games. In a recent game against the Chicago Bulls, Wembanyama took a career-high 27 shots, showcasing his offensive skills. NBA defenses prioritize preventing ball-handlers from gaining momentum, especially with a player like Wembanyama on the court, complicating defensive strategies.
"In each of their last two wins, Victor Wembanyama has posted 40-point double-doubles, making him the first Spur in history to accomplish the feat."
"Wembanyama used the Bulls game to expand his comfort zone, attempting a career-high 27 shots. 'Just figuring out some stuff,' Wembanyama said."
"Stretching back through a couple of evolutions, NBA defenses have made a priority of preventing ball-handlers from gaining momentum toward the middle of the floor."
