Victor Wembanyama recorded 19 points, seven rebounds, and six blocks to lead the San Antonio Spurs to a 96-87 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Friday night, then went to the park on Saturday to play chess with random New Yorkers. The victory ensured that the Spurs won again after two consecutive losses to the Philadelphia 76ers and the New York Knicks. Against the Nets, the Spurs bench was outstanding as Julien Champagnie scored 18 points, and Keldon Johnson added 15 points. Starting shooting guard Devin Vassell scored 10 points, recorded six rebounds, and 5 assists in an impressive offensive outing for his side. He may need to be at his best defensively as he matches up against Anthony Edwards.
