Victor Wembanyama last night:
21 PTS
12 REB
4 BLK
The last rookie to record at least 20p/10r/3b in consecutive games was Dwight Howard (2005).
Wembanyama has four such games overall, most by a teenager since the NBA began tracking blocks.

1, Wemby showing iron man signs.
2, Sochan improving, but the turnovers still an issue.

#Spurs still listing Victor Wembanyama (Hip Tightness) as Questionable tonight vs. ATL. We’ll know for sure in an hour.
The #1 pick has yet to miss an NBA game this season. Wouldn’t be surprised if Spurs are cautious tonight… – 5:30 PM

Gregg Popovich: “We’re trying to protect [Victor Wembanyama]. He may not play tomorrow [vs. the Pelicans]. We’ll see how he came out of this one.” Gregg Popovich on Wemby who was listed as questionable before the Spurs’ matchup against the Hawks due to hip tightness. -via Twitter / December 1, 2023
“My hip feels good,” he said after playing 29 minutes, just one shy of his season average. “My body in general feels as good as you can expect this many games into the season. I am holding up. I feel good.” -via San Antonio Express-News / December 1, 2023
Tom Petrini: I asked Coach Pop about how Victor Wembanyama has been able to be healthy and available for every game so far. “He came with great preparation habits already, so it’s not something we had to do with him. He’s very professional in all respects before he even got here.” -via Twitter @RealTomPetrini / November 30, 2023
