New match for Spurs and new defeat, the seventh in a row for Victor Wembanyama and his friends. This time the score is not too violent, but in reality not much changes in San Antonio.
For almost two weeks, the Spurs have not won. Since this fantastic match once morest the Suns (38 points), Victor Wembanyama has created a bit of an illusion at the heart of a team which struggles to pass the ball, which struggles to defend (which does not defend) and which takes jerk following jerk or not far. Tonight ? The score does not indicate a spanking but the Spurs, once once more, were deceived, even if Victor Wembanyama was able to heat up the stats machine once more.
27 points, 9 rebounds and 2 steals, 12/26 shooting including 2/8 from parking and only 1/1 shooting. 30 minutes on the floor and the few usual highlights, the good surprise Zach Collins (28/8/5/3) and Keldon Johnson who makes two or three big shots in the fourth quarter but… the absences of Tre Jones and Devin Vassell will have too much weighed, especially once morest a real basketball team.
Because we haven’t talked regarding it yet, but the Kings are starting to no longer be fun at all (now five wins in a row), and the return of De’Aaron Fox a few days ago officially validated the return in form of Mike Brown’s men. Tonight ? The Kings leader was hellish and even came within two pawns of his career record (43 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists), while his colleague Domantas Sabonis played once morest Wemby on several occasions and worth his usual technique / passing / hustle combo and finished the match with 27 points, 14 rebounds and 7 assists. Malik Monk made the Texan defense eat dust coming off the bench (6/9 from the parking lot), and in the end the 129-120 is almost an early Christmas present for the Spurs, never too far but never close, no. more.
We leave you with some highlights of our national Victor but the heart is not really in it, fortunately the special In-Season Tournament floor of the Spurs had burned our retinas during the warm-up. Oh yes by the way, the Spurs are eliminated from the race for the final tournament of the In-Season Tournament, in case anyone is interested. No ? Person ? Come on, next.
Wemby throws one down in the opening minutes of Spurs/Kings!
