Victor Wembanyama breaks the NBA

Victor Wembanyama isn’t just living up to the hype that followed him into the NBA—he’s blowing it out of the water. On Monday night, the French center for the San Antonio Spurs delivered one of the most complete and spectacular performances seen in years. He led his team to a 121-117 victory over the Chicago Bulls with numbers that defy logic: 38 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists, 5 blocks, 1 steal, and 6 three-pointers. All of it with a 66.8% shooting percentage. And the most jaw-dropping part? He’s only 21.

According to the report from Athlon Sports, Victor Wembanyama became the first player in NBA history to record at least 35 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 5 threes, and 5 blocks in a single game.
