AP Photo/Darren Abate Victor is the youngest center in NBA history to have a 50-point game. Coming off a victory against Sacramento this past Monday, the Spurs looked to grab another win against a struggling Washington Wizards team. After going up by 16 early in the first quarter, the Spurs only led by one going into the second. A back-and-forth affair was underway with the score 67-67 at halftime. However, something special was happening with Victor Wembanyama. He scored 24 points in the first half and knocked down his career-high eighth three as the Spurs blitzed Washington 41-24 in the third. It got dicey toward the end of the fourth after Wemby reached the career-high 50-point mark when Jordan Poole (who dropped 42 points) led Washington on a mini-run, but the Spurs edged out the Wizards 139-130. Victor Wembanyama was utterly unstoppable with 50 points (career-high), six rebounds, three blocks, two assists, a steal, and eight 3PM (career-high). Wemby is simply not from this planet. Ever since an anonymous NBA scout said he was not an offensive threat, he’s averaged 36 PPG & 12 RPG while averaging shooting splits of 59 % from the field, 54 % from three, 77 % from the free throw line, and 75% true shooting. You’ll notice throughout these highlights that Wemby’s limitless range badge is at least gold.

Wemby just became the youngest...— Center with a 50-PT game — Spur with a 50-PT game— Center with 8+ threes in a game — Player with 50+ PTS, 5+ 3P and under 2 TOVAlien. pic.twitter.com/WG2qEoI6w3— StatMuse (@statmuse) November 14, 2024 Devin Vassell had a decent game with 17 points, three assists, two rebounds, a steal, and a block off the bench. He’s still easing back into the rotation with 25 minutes played, and hopefully, he gets his starting spot back soon. Here, he draws two defenders and dumps it off to Zach Collins for the finish! Zach had himself a well-rounded game with five points, seven rebounds, and six assists. dishin' dimes pic.twitter.com/waXndKWvWt— San Antonio Spurs (@spurs) November 14, 2024 Julian Champagnie had a solid game with 12 points five rebounds, two assists, and a steal.

During the Wizards’ comeback attempt, CP3 and Wemby run a pick & roll to get the mismatch of Valanciunas on CP3. He then drains the midrange jumper to cushion the lead.

Also, Wemby gave Spurs fans a 50 point performance at the age of 20! The fact he is continuing to improve sounds promising for this team, and scary for the rest of the league. Finally, here are the full game highlights. The Spurs take on the Los Angeles Lakers in the Group Stage of the Emirates NBA Cup this Friday at 6:30 P.M. on ESPN.
