Wembanyama's stats were nothing short of phenomenal: he scored 34 points, grabbed 14 rebounds, and dished out 11 assists, also adding 5 three-pointers and 3 blocks to his tally. This effort made him the fourth player in NBA history to record a 30+ point triple-double before turning 21, joining the elite company of Luka DonÄiÄ, LeBron James, and DeāAaron Fox.
This game was particularly notable as Wembanyama achieved a rare statistical line, becoming only the third player to record 30+ points, 10+ rebounds, 10+ assists, 5+ three-pointers, and 3+ blocks in a single game, following in the footsteps of James Harden and Vince Carter.
The Spurs' victory was also fueled by Devin Vassell's 21 points and 5 three-pointers, as well as Chris Paul's 13 points and 10 assists. The team set a franchise record with 23 three-pointers made.
On the other side, the Sacramento Kings had strong performances from DeMar DeRozan with 28 points, Domantas Sabonis with 25 points and 13 rebounds, and DeāAaron Fox with 23 points and 9 assists.
