Wemby Watch: Producing 20-Point Performances Regularly

Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama has now scored at least 20 points in three consecutive contests.

As the season goes on, Victor Wembanyama is nearing his 30th regular season NBA game this week. He has only gotten better with time, which is incredibly scary for opposing franchises given how good he already is. 

The 7-foot-4 rookie is still 19 years old and already a legitimate impact player on both ends. While the San Antonio Spurs aren't a competitive team, it's still impressive that he's the best player on the roster at his age.

What has the generational talent done since our last Wemby Watch update, and what are his statistics to this point?

Spurs Record: 5-28

Exactly a week ago, Wembanyama scored 30 points on 14 shots against the Portland Trail Blazers, in what was one of the most impressive offensive games of his career. While he's had no problem scoring through the first few months of the season, doing so efficiently has been a learning experience. He followed that up with two games of at least 20 points, against the Boston Celtics and then the Memphis Grizzlies on 50% shooting from the floor both times.

Furthermore, Wembanyama has notched 12 blocks over the past three games alone, continuing to make his mark on the defensive end. He's improved his 3-point shooting, converting on 7-of-17 (41.2%) of his triples over the past week. The French phenom's statistics are impressive, but what he's able to do on the court is something you have to see with your own eyes. His size allows him to make plays that no other player in the league can.

In the upcoming week, Wembanyama and the Spurs will take on the Milwaukee Bucks, Cleveland Cavaliers and Detroit Pistons.
