In an exhilarating preseason finale, the San Antonio Spurs secured a 122-117 triumph over the Golden State Warriors, with standout performance from their No. 1 draft pick, Victor Wembanyama.
The French sensation exhibited his exceptional skills, leading the scoring charts with 19 points, alongside an impressive defensive showcase of 5 blocks and 4 rebounds during his 21-minute game time.
Wembanyama’s stellar first-quarter performance, where he notched 12 points, set the tone for the Spurs’ dynamic offensive display, supported by the strong contributions of Devin Vassell, Zach Collins, Keldon Johnson, Charles Bassey, and Malaki Branham, all finishing with double-digit scores.
Despite the Warriors’ commendable efforts, notably led by Moses Moody’s 18 points and 8 rebounds, Dario Saric’s 17 points, and Jonathan Kuminga’s 13 points, 5 rebounds, and 6 assists, the Spurs ultimately emerged triumphant.
With the regular season looming, the Spurs are poised to face the Mavericks on October 25, while the Warriors prepare to host the Suns on October 24, promising an exciting start to the NBA action.
