Thunder's counterpunch to Victor Wembanyama came a few games too late

The Spurs got the best of the OKC Thunder over these past few weeks, as they handed the reigning champions three of their five total losses on the year in a span of just 12 days.

To no surprise, the main catalyst in these triumphs for San Antonio was Victor Wembanyama, who has averaged 17.7 points, 8.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and a block on 53.1 percent shooting from the floor and 80.0 percent shooting from deep during these matchups.

In many ways, perhaps the only antidote to Wemby's otherworldly on-court heroics would have been a top-flight performance from his direct frontcourt rival, Chet Holmgren, who, sadly, is averaging a mere 11.
