What a game from him, a complete force on the defensive end and the times it felt like the spurs need a bucket and we’re able to get it to him he was able to create. His reverse two hand jam, baseline reverse one hand jam, and go ahead bucket to send the game to OT not to mention crazy energy in OT. So glad he’s on the spurs GSG.

Fucking we building another Alamo and have Wemby protect it by himself
Man was a typical rookie through 3 quarters. What I witnessed after that was unbelievable
Started off slow and then remembered he’s a generational talent lol.
People were talking crazy at halftime, they don’t learn
You’re welcome guys
This dude is seriously scary on defense.
He was incredible in the 4th and OT
Stumbled a bit at first, but man he dominated the end of the game. It’s impressive how poised he’s looked at the end of both games this season.
League so unironically fucked
First three quarters shows he’s still a rookie at heart, and that’s fine. Last quarter and OT shows the potential everybody sees. Just needs to tap into that reliably and dudes gonna live up to that generational hype. So damn fun watching him!
he bricked so many 3’s in the beginning. still needs to understand the flow of the game
Lol he’s so fucking good. Looked like he was just having a rookie game and then..
Wemby really turns it up at the end of games, he has that dog in him fr
Spurs are fun to watch fr fr
Please stay healthy man. God damn I just wanna watch this dude every night.
Future’s bright for this team. Wemby and Devin are both incredible.
He has the clutch gene
It’s wild how he comes into the fourth quarter and just gives you whatever the fuck you need. Whether it’s a buckets and or clutch defense he just does it.
His presence on d was amazing in the 4th + OT. There were plays where he was lost but locked in hard at the end.
Watching his game tonight was like watching a taller Giannis, see even his 3ball was shit. I love his game
Pop is handling his minutes very well.
He really just needs to chill on all the moving threes and he’s gonna dominate night in, night out.
He had three highlights from blocks alone.
In crunch time, Wemby locks in. That double block on Smith and the spin/reverse spin on Brooks for the 18′ inbound catch and shoot over him were absolutely epic.
THATS MY FUCKING ROOKIE
I think Pop basically let Wemby (and whole team, in general) play more or less free for the first 3 quarters. Or at least, encourage trying different things, test some moves, let threes rain etc.
And then, if game is close, 4th quarter is more organized, less experiments, more focus on good plays.
Nice approach for young team.
It’ll be a few years, but Wemby actually is a real hope for a quadruple double.
I don’t want to see any Chet slander on this thread. Can’t we wish for both longbois to run the league for the next 15 years?
That said, I saw an instagram post combining Wemby’s first game highlights with Duncan’s first game highlights and everyone was like “glazing bruh.” Shut up morons, if it was 19 y.o Duncan (knowing nothing about how his career turns out) vs Wemby for first pick, no one thinks twice about picking Wemby.
Is this man just a crunch time specialist? 2 games in a row he changed the entire flow of the game in the 4th lol, he just ran into fucking Luka Doncic on Wdnesday.
