This season, it has become normal for the Spurs to lose, but No. 1 pick Victor Wembanyama to produce top-notch statistics, especially when he is on a defensive hot spot, and then to put up incredible statistics.
After the All-Star break, the Spurs lost all three games, and the Zebras shined brightly. In the past five games, he averaged 24 points, 11 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 5.6 blocks and 2.8 steals per game, which is comparable to MVP levels.
Compared with the offense, what is even more frightening is the Zebra’s defensive dominance. In the loss to the Kings, they scored 19 points + 13 rebounds + 4 assists + 5 steals + 5 blocks; in the loss to the Lakers, they scored 27 points + 10 rebounds + 8 assists + 5 Steal + 5 blocks; lost to Jazz, contributed 22 points + 10 rebounds + 2 assists + 1 interception + 5 hot pot. According to statistics from the NBA’s official website, he is the first rookie in NBA history to score 5+ points in three consecutive games in the past 32 years. The last one was Shaquille O’Neal in the 1992-93 season. In 11 games played from February to now, Bunyama scored 40 goals, ranking first in the league, and the number of blocks surpassed 10 teams, which is even more amazing.
Jazz head coach Will Hardy said after yesterday’s victory over the Spurs, “Wenban is a very good defender at the basket, so we have to keep him away from the basket as much as possible. The purpose of doing this is to reduce his presence under the basket. The defensive impact. When our players attack, we can see Wenban’s defense earlier, which gives our players more time and space to respond.”
“I have to understand that this is a long season and I know there are new challenges every night,” Vunbanyama said. “I think the way to be a great player is to repeat great performances.”
So far this season, Wenbanyama has shown excellent defensive capabilities to the league. In the future, as his skills and confrontational strength increase, the Spurs will continue to optimize their lineup. They will also be the most anticipated team in the league.
