Wembanyama Shakes Off Injury Scare, Dominates with 22-Point Double-Double

Victor Wembanyama overcame an early injury scare after banging knees with Giannis Antetokounmpo, returning in the second quarter to lead the San Antonio Spurs to a 119-101 rout of the Bucks. Wembanyama recorded a double-double with 22 points on efficient 7-of-12 shooting (including 5-of-6 from three-point range), 10 rebounds, 2 blocks, and 1 assist. After playing a decoy role initially, he erupted in the third quarter with five three-pointers and highlight-reel plays, showcasing his "Bald Wemby" form. The Spurs' chemistry was evident in the bounce-back win, with a revenge matchup against Minnesota next.
