Victor Wembanyama made more history Monday night in leading the Spurs to a 122-96 victory over the Phoenix Suns.
San Antonio Spurs forward Victor Wembanyama delivered an impressive performance in the team's ninth consecutive win, scoring 40 points, grabbing 11 rebounds and blocking nine shots in a 122-96 victory over the Phoenix Suns. The 7-foot-4 center, who has become a franchise icon, faced challenges from the Suns, recording five blocks in the first half alone.
