Unstoppable Start: Victor Wembanyama NBA History in Just Three Games
The hype around Victor Wembanyama is real, and now it’s cemented in the NBA record books. The San Antonio Spurs’ sophomore star has just carved out a unique piece of Victor Wembanyama NBA History, becoming the first player ever to record 100 points and 15 blocks in the first three games of a regular season.
This astonishing achievement was delivered as the Spurs kept their undefeated start alive by defeating the Brooklyn Nets 118-107.
Game Recap: Spurs Overcome Massive Nets Comeback
The San Antonio Spurs looked set for an easy victory after storming to a commanding 81-55 lead in the third quarter. However, the Brooklyn Nets mounted a furious 26-7 run, slicing the lead down to a terrifying seven points (88-81).
Showing maturity beyond their years, the Wembanyama-inspired team sealed the win in the fourth quarter with an impressive 10-0 run, showcasing the resilience and clutch performance this new Spurs squad is developing. The victory moves the team to a perfect 3-0 record, placing them atop the Eastern Conference standings early in the campaign.
Wemby’s Record-Breaking Numbers
The 21-year-old French phenomenon’s impact goes far beyond the 100-point, 15-block milestone. His complete statistical dominance across the first three games means he is the only player in NBA history to surpass the triple-digit mark in points while also accumulating 15+ assists and 40+ rebounds in a season’s first three contests.
Wembanyama currently leads the entire league with 6.0 blocks per game, making a strong early case not just for Defensive Player of the Year, but potentially for the 2025-26 KIA MVP award, especially if he maintains this phenomenal, league-leading scoring output.
His return to dominance after being sidelined for much of last season due to injury signals a changing of the guard in the NBA, and every game is now appointment viewing to witness the next piece of Victor Wembanyama NBA history.
