After several recent disheartening losses, the San Antonio Spurs got back on the right track with a win against the Sacramento Kings. Still, some wonder if the league had figured out star Victor Wembanyama.
The Phoenix Suns, Los Angeles Lakers, and Houston Rockets employed a similar strategy in which they put a big wing on Wembanyama and sent help whenever he caught the ball in the post. That often led to him getting flustered and quickly passing the ball out or even turning it over.
Fortunately, the Spurs may have cracked the code and found several different ways to counter opposing teams' aggressive Wembanyama strategy.
