Victor Wembanyama once again demonstrated his impact on the San Antonio Spurs‘ game. With 18 points and 8 rebounds, the French center guided his team to a convincing 132-104 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday night.
A collective performance by the Spurs
The French phenomenon shot 7 for 14 with two 3-pointers and three assists, contributing to the Spurs’ first win in Sacramento in over two years. Wembanyama wasn’t alone in this display of force, as former Kings player De’Aaron Fox added 15 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists for San Antonio.
Keldon Johnson also shined with 18 points, while Dylan Harper scored 15. This collective performance perfectly illustrates the current momentum of the Spurs (51-18), who have won eight of their last nine games. The Texas team also improved their record to 11-3 in the second games of back-to-back sets.
The Spurs took the lead from the first quarter thanks to Harrison Barnes, former Kings player, Keldon Johnson and Stephon Castle. This trio combined shot 9 for 10 and scored 22 points, allowing San Antonio to lead 39-22.
