Now that Victor Wembanyama is back for the San Antonio Spurs, it's time for him to get down to business. First things first. During his 12-game absence, Indiana Pacers center Jay Huff managed to overtake Wembanyama in total blocks, something that cannot stand.
Wembanyama has led the NBA in blocks per game and total blocks in each of his first two seasons. If he is able to stay healthy for the rest of the season, he could quickly overtake Huff and restore sanity to the NBA. That would tie him with the late great Dikembe Mutombo, who is the only player to ever lead the league in blocks three straight seasons.
