Western Conference second seeds San Antonio Spurs, fueled by 40 points, 13 rebounds, five assists and two blocked shots from superstar Victor Wembanyama, beat the Dallas Mavericks 139-120. It was the fastest 40/10/5 recorded in NBA history.
Wembanyama returned to action after missing one game with a bruised rib, and with 64 regular-season games and the NBA Cup final under his belt, has met the 65-game minimum to be eligible for season honours, including Defensive Player of the Year and Most Valuable Player.
