Whereas on my vacation break, I’ve been rewatching a number of the Spurs video games I noticed in particular person. Though I like attending the video games, I recognize what I hear from Jacob Tobey, Sean Elliott, and Dan Weiss. Their perception and evaluation is sort of informative.
On December twenty first, as Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs confronted Portland Path Blazers, Wemby hit his two-hundredth three-pointer, making him the fifteenth quickest participant to hit that mark in NBA historical past.
To be clear, this was solely Victor’s ninety-fourth sport.
Whereas that in and of itself is spectacular, I discovered this side most spectacular.

Wemby additionally set a Spurs report in that very same sport.
Victor Wembanyama has now had a block in 62 straight video games – a brand new Spurs franchise report.

Victor clocked his sixty-second consecutive sport accumulating a block. This surpassed David Robinson who was on the record twice for sixty-one and fifty-five consecutive video games with a block.
Everybody is aware of his blocking is coming at an elite degree, however his consistency alludes to some epic numbers to come back. Oh, and simply to replace, his surpassing Robinson was 4 video games in the past. He’s notched “a minimum of one” in every of these video games. It’s truly twenty over the past 4 video games, or thirty for those who depend the December twenty first sport.
Victor ended that night time with thirty factors and ten blocks, making him the sixth participant in NBA historical past to amass such a stat.

Two of the gamers on that record — Hakeem Olajuwon and David Robinson — had a number of thirty/ten nights, every having one on their option to seize a quadruple-double.
Personally, I like several record that features Wemby with Robinson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Whereas Wemby would commerce all of the stats and information for Spurs wins, the truth is he received’t have to attend lengthy earlier than each are occurring concurrently.
Spurs are house tonight for a New Yr’s Eve sport.
