Wembanyama, Harper lead Spurs to 10th straight win, 124-119 over Bulls
Victor Wembanyama and Dylan Harper led the San Antonio Spurs to their 10th consecutive win, defeating the Chicago Bulls 124-119 on Wednesday night. Overcoming a 22-point deficit, the Spurs displayed exceptional resilience and teamwork. Wembanyama contributed 32 points, while Harper delivered 18 points, 10 assists, and four steals.
The Spurs' dominance was evident as they extended a 4-0 winning streak during a trip. DeAaron Fox added 17 points and nine assists for the Bulls, but Jalen Smith led them with 23 points. Nic Claxton also delivered a strong performance with 17 points off the bench. Caleb Wilson, the Bulls' first-round pick, scored 15 points before suffering a right hand injury in the third quarter.
Chicago's performance suffered as they led only midway through the second quarter, their smallest lead of the season. The Spurs capitalized on Chicago turnovers to reverse the tide, maintaining control in the fourth quarter with two impressive runs. Norman Powell's absence due to back spasms further impacted the Bulls' performance.
