Victor Wembanyama goes off for career-high 52 points as Spurs edge Mavericks - Geo News
Victor Wembanyama was all guns blazing, scoring 52 points, and 24 rebounds in the Spurs' 112-111 win over the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday, November 4, 2026.
This makes Wemby the only player this season with NBA highs in points, rebounds and blocks in one game, all against the Dallas Mavericks.
Wemby kicks off the game going red-hot against the Mavericks, racking up 10 of San Antonioβs first 12 points on the way to pouring in 29 points over nearly 17 minutes in the first two quarters.
This marked the second most points he has scored in a half in his career, trailing only his 37-point first half in February against the L.A. Lakers.
The Frenchmen scored more than half of the points (15) that came from free throws.
Wembanyama grabbed 15 rebounds and 5 blocks taking Spurs to lead the first half 68-51.
Speaking in a postgame press conference about his stunning performance, Wemby said, βItβs just figuring things out. Sometimes, youβre one step ahead. Also, I havenβt been feeling great lately. Iβm sick. I felt like I got my legs back. So, it should be more like this more often.β
The records fell like a monsoon shower, as the 22-year-old made history by becoming the first player to score at least 25 points, 10 rebounds and 5 blocks in a single half.
After beating the Dallas Mavericks, the Spurs 6-2, are heading out on the road for a game against the Sacramento Kings on Friday, November 6, 2026.
