Full Story

Victor Wembanyama delivered a performance for the ages at Frost Bank Center, becoming the youngest player in NBA history to record 50 points and 8 blocks in a single game as the San Antonio Spurs defeated the Milwaukee Bucks 132-118. The 7-foot-4 French phenom was absolutely dominant on both ends of the floor, shooting 18-of-29 from the field and 6-of-12 from three-point range while terrorizing the Bucks' offense with his shot-blocking prowess. At just 20 years old, Wembanyama joins an elite group of players who have achieved this rare statistical milestone, becoming only the third player in NBA history to reach 50 points and 8 blocks in the same game, joining Hakeem Olajuwon and David Robinson. The rookie added 12 rebounds and 3 assists to his stat line, playing all 48 minutes in what can only be described as a generational performance. Devin Vassell contributed 24 points, while Keldon Johnson added 18 points and 7 rebounds as the Spurs shot 52% from the field as a team.
