Wemby is now the 3rd player in NBA history with multiple 5x5 games. Coming off a loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Spurs looked to bounce back with a victory over the Utah Jazz in Salt Lake City. This was the Spurs’ first SEGABABA of the season, yet the Spurs played like the more rested team. After falling behind 30-19 in the first quarter, the Spurs saw themselves only down by six at halftime. When the third quarter started, the Spurs took over the game on both sides. They outscored Utah 30-14 with many forced turnovers including an NBA record of nine team steals in a quarter. In the fourth, the Spurs kept their foot on the gas pedal and clinched a victory 106-88. The Spurs finished the game with 17 steals and Utah finished with 26 turnovers. Ladies and gentlemen, Victor Wembanyama has done it again. He recorded his second 5x5 game with 25 points, nine rebounds, seven assists, five steals, and five blocks. He is also the record holder of having the most threes made in a 5x5 game (four). It seems he took the “playing soft” criticisms seriously because this was the most offensively aggressive game he’s played so far. He attempted 13 threes and Gregg Popovich said after the game that he wants him to keep firing from distance. We should have known a masterclass was coming after we saw Wemby’s Halloween costume coming into the game.

The fact that he barely had to even jump to cover that distance should tell you how easy this is for him. flyin' high ✈️ pic.twitter.com/TZUHFei9hI— San Antonio Spurs (@spurs) November 1, 2024 This play had Wemby written all over it. He first pickpockets Keyonte George, then runs the fastbreak, and then pulls out a behind-the-back dime to Champagnie for the finish. 7’4” demigod.

As mentioned above, we got to see more of the Wemby/CP3 p&r action this game, and here they show off the two-man give-and-go special. things we love to see >>> https://t.co/iP49gRDWOq pic.twitter.com/X1ghh1PL9S— San Antonio Spurs (@spurs) November 1, 2024 Jeremy Sochan continues his solid start to the season by dropping 11 points, five rebounds, three assists, two steals, and a block. He took a backseat to CP3 and Wemby this game, but still made an impact on both sides. He’s still got a hitch in his jumper, but when you leave him this much space, the three is going to fall.

His basketball IQ is underrated, and he shows it here by cutting to the basket for the alley-oop finish from a Wemby dime! Two playmaking bigs on the court will always result in great chemistry basketball. say it with us...

He has been a great plug-and-play player for the Silver & Black, and here he catches this Wemby dime for the easy dunk to tie the game in the third.

Here he sprints out in transition and catches a Sochan pass for the slam! Big third quarter for our guys!END 3 | SAS 77, UTA 67 pic.twitter.com/LNd9Kp8XOK— San Antonio Spurs (@spurs) November 1, 2024 This was a much-needed bounce-back win after a disappointing loss. This Spurs team is also showing that they are way beyond a better defensive team than last year. With Devin Vassell returning soon, look for the offense to have more stability. Finally, here are the full game highlights. The Spurs take on the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Frost Bank Center on Saturday at 7:00 P.M. (CST) on FanDuel Sports Network - Southwest.
