Spurs star Victor Wembanyama accomplishes impressive scoring feat in limited action vs. Kings

San Antonio Spurs' Victor Wembanyama continues impressive scoring streak in limited minutes against Sacramento Kings. The 7-foot-tall phenom put on a show despite playing just 26 minutes, scoring 30 points, grabbing 14 rebounds, blocking two shots and pulling down two assists. Wembanyama shot a remarkable 10-of-18 from the field, including four three-pointers.

His performance helped San Antonio extend its winning streak to seven games and improve to 7-2. The young star also set a new franchise record with back-to-back games featuring at least two blocks, joining David Robinson as the only players to do so in the first nine games of a season. However, Wembanyama suffered a slight setback when he twisted his left ankle after colliding with teammate Domantas Sabonis while taking a contested three-pointer, resulting in a Flagrant 1 foul.

The next player to step in, Dylan Harper, returned the favor and helped San Antonio seal the victory. Key contributors on the winning team included Stephon Castle, Dylan Harper, Devin Vassell and Harrison Barnes.
