Ever since San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama's dominant season-opening performance against the Dallas Mavericks, he has been the talk of the NBA. The Ringers' Bill Simmons has often showered Wembanyama with praise.
Even so, he couldn't find the words after Wembanyama's 40-point and 15-rebound demolition of the Mavs.
It's been fascinating to watch NBA analysts' reactions, with many praising Wembanyama for being more assertive in the paint. To their point, his 40-point performance was easily the best game of his career.
Even more impressive than his 44-point Christmas Day outburst against the New York Knicks and him dropping 52 points against the Washington Wizards.
