This has to be the closest we have been to a quadruple-double since Draymond decided to score only 4 points that one time.
MAN IS A MONSTER.
15* rebounds
He was blocking everything
Quadruple double coming in the next year. Hell maybe even before the season ends
Yall better be fucking scared when he has good teammates.
O/U 20 quad doubles in his career?
I am NOT looking forward to facing the spurs in 3 years
This is an unreal player.
Making 6+ block games normal
I’d bet my house he’s going to have multiple quintuple doubles
One of the most bizarre statlines ever. Near quadruple double but also shot 31% on 29 FGA.
Needs to stop shooting all those damn threes but other than that he was amazing
How does this guy exist he’s doing this shit as a rookie
If the clippers don’t win a ring this season I will be officially leaving in free agency and taking my talents to San Antonio ✌️
wemby will be the first player with multiple quadruple doubles
So many of these almost 5×5 and quadruple double games are in his future! He just needs that one game and it’ll go down in history
Dammit I was rooting for OT so he’d have a chance to get it

I turned it on when he was flirting with a quadruple double. About 7 minutes left in the 3rd. You could tell he was gassed. Led to some bad shots and turnovers. The kid needs help.
He shot so fucking bad this game, could have easily had 35 is he shot normally
I think the Denver altitude got to him in the 4th, all his shots were short. Anywhere else he might have got the quadruple double.
We were so close to the quad man
It’ll happen
2K STAT LINE
Starting to think it’s not hyperbole to say his floor (if he stays healthy) is top 10 all-time, and his ceiling is ending the Jordan vs. Lebron debate
That last block was comical, don’t know what the Nuggets player was thinking. Then Wemby nearly could have had another one but Braun wisely passed up a layup that you take against every other player in the league to pass to MPJ for the go-ahead 3.
I mean surely as his career progresses his amount of blocks will go down as people just stop trying him at the rim right? RIGHT?
He also looked pretty gassed during the game, probably because of the altitude. Imagine his statlines once he improves his stamina.
Only real issue with Wemby’s game is that his jumpshot just isn’t that good
Hes in the West thats fucking great
According to Nicolas Batum, this Wemby sucks compared to the elite behemoth we’re gonna witness in the future.
Needs to fix his shot selection. He wasted all the extra offensive chances that he provided with his defense.
He’s literally going to average like 28/13/5 next season with 4-5 blocks per game. And those might be conservative estimates.
Genuine insanity. KP never even did that. Dirk, KG, AD kinda guy very fast.
Just a casual 9 fucking blocks loool. This kids stats are insane just about all of the time. He is so fucking good even when he’s “bad”. 9/29 shooting or something like that but then he does that.
His 9th block was incredible.
I’m sold on him tbh.
He’s the future
I’m no Nostradamus, but I think Wemby may have a quadruple double in the near future.
bad offense game
but incredible defense performance.
Chris Paul should go to SA next year.
The secret to his game is that he’s very good
I was rooting sooooo hard for this gane to go OT. Wanted to see Wemby get a QD. Ah well, he’ll get one eventually.
Btw, Wemby got a great lesson tonight. He played mad D and Jokic dropped 40 on him. Wemby learned tonight that the best player in the world scores on you, secured rebounds, finds open shooters and cutters, and dishes out punishment with those massive elbows.
Wemby’s ribs gonna be sore tomorrow.
first time seeing him IRL tonight. absolutely unreal player on the defensive end, and oozing potential on the offensive end
If Wemby played 40 minutes he would have gotten the quadruple double.
Next season it seems inevitable (barring a serious injury).
The last player to have a quadruple double was also a Spurs player. David Robinson
Wemby better win Defensive PLAYER of The Year.
So help me, if this motherfucker ends up playing with Trae Young or any pg of that style and caliber, I genuinely can’t fathom the stats he would have.
