So, yes, the curmudgeons will always be able to say that the Golden State Warriors were decimated. No Jimmy Butler, Stephen Curry, Al Horford or Kristaps Porzingis. Still. On Wednesday, the San Antonio Spurs scored a tenth success in a row by winning in San Francisco quite easily (127-113).
After his best performance of the season, Monday, where he scored 41 points against the Bulls, Victor Wembanyama repeated the same performance, with another 41 points against the Warriors. But, this time, with a much more satisfactory skill (16 out of 22 shooting), particularly at mid-distance and close to the circle. His stats sheet was inflated by 18 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks.
The Spurs put pressure on the Thunder
The 22-year-old Frenchman already had 17 points and 9 rebounds at the end of the first quarter (27 points and 13 rebounds at the break) to put the Spurs into orbit. Second in the West with 58 wins and 18 losses, the Texan franchise continues to put pressure on leader Oklahoma City (60v-16d), eleven days from the end of the regular season.
Match after match, “Wemby” fulfills his mission, to impress the followers, he who assumes he is a candidate for the MVP award, and will attack his first play-offs at full speed. He continues with the Texans on Thursday on a trip to the Los Angeles Clippers.
