No Victor Wembanyama, no problem. The San Antonio Spurs handled the Washington Wizards in their first Las Vegas Summer League game without Wemby, 96-85.
The summer Spurs were led by the sophomores, as Malaki Branham, Dominick Barlow, Julian Champagnie and Blake Wesley all scored in the double digits. What has become the summer league team’s core four look to be hitting their stride in the heat of Vegas. Branham bounced back from a poor shooting night on Sunday with an impressive 27-point game where he shot 12-20 from the field and 5-6 from three.
