Wembanyama Winded but Optimistic after Season Debut

In San Antonio's season opener, Victor Wembanyama found it challenging to keep pace

In San Antonio’s season opener, Victor Wembanyama found it challenging to keep pace, playing 28 minutes in a 120-109 loss to the Dallas Mavericks. The French center scored 17 points on 5-of-18 shooting, adding 9 rebounds and 4 turnovers.

“I felt great at times,” Wembanyama said, “but conditioning-wise, it was a bit tough initially, as expected.” After limited preseason minutes, Wembanyama expects to be back in full shape within a few games. The Spurs will face the Rockets on Saturday.
