Victor Wembanyama delivered an impressive performance against the Pacers, leading the San Antonio Spurs to a 117-105 victory with a stat line of 31 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists, and 6 blocks. Wembanyama's performance included blocking 6 different Pacers players, with 92% of his 186 blocks for the season coming from layups, floaters, or dunks. This victory marked the Spurs' second consecutive win following their return from the Rodeo Road Trip. Wembanyama's achievements placed him alongside NBA legends David Robinson and Tim Duncan as the only rookies in NBA history to record 30+ points, 10+ rebounds, 5+ assists, and 5+ blocks in a single game. His contribution to the Spurs' success has sparked discussions about his potential to win the Rookie of the Year award and his impact on the team's future.
