Victor Wembanyama’s 40-Point Explosion: What Was He Really Proving Against the Lakers?
Advertisement
Wembanyama had the highest-scoring first half performance by anybody in the NBA this season, and the highest-scoring half by a Spurs player in the 21st century.
And he played only 26 minutes — the fewest by any player in a 40-point game since Sleepy Floyd did it in 24 minutes in February 1991.
“It feels right,” Wembanyama said with a grin when asked to describe his first-half flow.
He was looking for his shot at every opportunity, and his teammates fed him relentlessly. It was all by design for the center, who will start his first All-Star Game this weekend several miles down the freeway at Intuit Dome.
