Victor Wembanyama tells NBA he’s done with the truly alien sequence

on Sunday, San Antonio Spurs took the floor for his first home game of the 2025-26 NBA season against the rebuilding Brooklyn Nets after two straight road wins to start the year. San Antonio went to strong start to this one, taking a 69-48 lead into the locker room at halftime thanks to 18 first-half points by superstar Victor Vembanyama.

Vembanjama has already made some highlight reel-worthy plays this year en route to what he hopes is an MVP-level campaign, and that trend has continued with an incredible streak against the Nets on Sunday.

First, Wembanyama blocked not one but two shots from helpless Nets players in the same possession, then when his team secured a rebound, he dribbled down the floor and casually buried a 3-pointer from Stephen Curry’s range, sending the crowd into a frenzy and giving San Antonio the lead they eventually carried into halftime.

Victor Vembanyama is not from this PLANET 👾

It was a great display of all the skills Wembanjama brings to the table that have made him perhaps the best young prospect in NBA history.

Hot start for Spurs

Entering this season, there was little doubt that Wembanyama would continue his rise to become one of the best players in the NBA today. However, the bigger question was how the Spurs would look as a team, especially with the logjam at the point guard position.

So far this year, De’Aaron Fox has yet to suit up for the Spurs as he deals with injury, opening the door for last year’s Rookie of the Year winner Stephon Castle and this year’s overall draft pick Dylan Harper to see a bigger role, one they’ve been great at so far this year, albeit with a small sample size and not against the elite.

Still, if Harper and Castle can continue to develop, there’s a chance this Spurs team could be among the best in the West this season, with Wembanyama looking like the best player in the NBA in the first week of the season.
