Victor Wembanyama joins Hakeem Olajuwon (4x) as the only players in NBA history to record 25+ points, 10+ rebounds, 5+ assists, 5+ steals, and 5+ blocks in a game.
With his performance tonight, Victor Wembanyama becomes the 15th player and the 22nd instance in NBA history to record a 5×5 (PTS-REB-AST-STL-BLK) game, since 1973-74 when blocks and steals became official.
At 20y, 50d old, he is the youngest player since tracking began to have such a game (previously: Andrei Kirilenko, 22y, 288d old).
He is the second rookie to ever record such a game (Jamaal Tinsley: 11.16.01, IND v MIN โ€“ 12 PTS, 15 AST, 9 REB, 6 STL, 5 BLK).
Itโ€™s the first 5×5 game in the NBA since Jusuf Nurkic totaled 24 PTS, 23 REB, 7 AST, 5 STL, and 5 BLK on Jan. 1, 2019, POR v SAC

  2. It's crazy not just Wemby's potential but how much he's improved THIS season alone. Just look at the playmaking and how he's been shooting the 3 recently

  3. No more discussing ROTY… it is clear now Wemby has that sealed. Only conversations should be happening now is Wemby historic rookie year being compared to all the other great rookie years in NBA history. He is arguably having the best rookie year ever.

  4. Currently, my 2 fav players are Sochan and Wemby. I really hope Sochan stays with the Spurs for a while because I want to see him and Wemby build even more chemistry together and start winning more games!

  5. Tbh I can see him averaging a 5×5 in his career ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿพโ€โ™‚๏ธ

  6. Last night Wemby was 1 assist shy of a 5×5. He probably learned for the first time that that was a rare stat and decided to pull it off tonight.

  7. I don't really have words to describe this guy anymore, it's just unreal ๐Ÿ‘ฝ๐Ÿ‘ฝ๐Ÿ‘ฝ

  8. once he's off the leash with minutes restriction, and playing with a better point guard his numbers will be insane
