The Washington Wizards had no answer for Victor Wembanyama on Wednesday night.
The San Antonio Spurs star put up a career-high 50 points in their 139-130 win over the Wizards at the Frost Bank Center. It was by far the best outing of Wembanyama’s young career, shattering his previous career-high of 40. He drained eight 3-pointers in the win, too, and shot 18-29 from the field.
The outing came after a 34-point performance on Monday against the Sacramento Kings. The former No. 1 overall draft pick is now the first Spurs player to have a 50-point game since LaMarcus Aldridge did in 2019.
