Overview
- San Antonio blew the game open with a 40-16 third quarter and led by as many as 39 points.
- Victor Wembanyama posted 22 points and 10 rebounds in roughly 22 minutes, hitting 5 of 6 from three on 7-for-12 shooting.
- He briefly exited after a knee-on-knee collision with Giannis Antetokounmpo in the first quarter, then started the second and finished without a reported new injury.
- Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said Wembanyama is still progressing and not yet at his peak, invoking Giannis as a point of comparison.
- After the final buzzer the two stars spoke at length and praised each other, and the win moved San Antonio to 28-13, level with Denver in the West.
