The race for rookie of the year seems officially over after this Thursday, February 29. Victor Wembanyama crushed Chet Holmgren during their meeting with an incredible performance, and above all clutch.
Back home for the first time since February 3, the Spurs faced the Thunder this Thursday evening. An expected clash between Chet Holmgren and Victor Wembanyama, from whom Gregg Popovich’s men emerged victorious with a score of 132-118. Yes, the Texans returned to victory and with a great Wemby for the occasion.

Happy to be back with his audience, and motivated by the idea of facing Chet, the Frenchman finished with 28 points, 13 rebounds, 7 assists, 5 blocks, 5 three-pointers and 2 interceptions. An exceptional performance for Victor, who played the entire fourth quarter. And he made several clutch actions including… a winning shot then a counter on Holmgren.
