Wembanyama scores rare 5×5 as Spurs rout Jazz
Victor Wembanyama further enhanced his reputation by sealing a rare 5×5 to help the San Antonio Spurs defeat the Utah Jazz 106-88.
Wembanyama scored 25 points with nine rebounds, seven assists, five blocks and five steals.
It is the second time he has accomplished the 5×5 – five in each category – and he joined Hakeem Olajuwon and Andrei Kirilenko as the only players to achieve that feat more than once.
“It tells me I need to get my standards up when I don’t get 5x5s because I am able to help my team in all those areas. It should be a consistent thing,” Wembanyama said.
The Spurs, who had lost their previous two fixtures, are 12th in the Western Conference, while the Jazz are bottom after losing all five games
