The Phoenix Suns were clearly impressed by Victor Wembanyama’s extraordinary talent. Devin Booker, after returning from injury, acknowledged Wembanyama’s uniqueness and expressed the need to make adjustments in future matchups due to the rookie’s 7-foot-4 stature and shooting abilities. Kevin Durant also acknowledged Wembanyama’s exceptional qualities, emphasizing that the rookie is his own player.

Wembanyama showcased his potential in his best NBA game on Thursday night, recording 38 points and 10 rebounds to lead the San Antonio Spurs to a 132-121 victory over the Suns. Game by game, Wembanyama’s comfort level is increasing, and even Kawhi Leonard of the Clippers recognized his potential, anticipating that Wembanyama would continue to improve as he adapts to the season.

Wembanyama’s aggressiveness against the Suns was evident, and his ability to run the floor effectively contributes to his scoring success. Zach Collins contributed 19 points, and Devin Vassell added 17 for the Spurs, while Booker and Durant scored 31 and 28 points, respectively, for the Suns.
