Struggles in Game 5 Loss as Rookie Card Sells for Record $5.11M

Victor Wembanyama’s 1-of-1 Panini Prizm rookie card sold for a record $5.11 million, but the Spurs star struggled on the court, posting a series-low 20 points in a 127-114 Game 5 loss to Oklahoma City. With San Antonio facing a 3-2 deficit, coach Mitch Johnson emphasized the urgency to get Wembanyama going for Game 6. Despite previous 41 and 33-point outings, Wembanyama's performance was labeled an "egg" in a critical moment as the Spurs now face elimination in the Western Conference Finals.
