Victor Wembanyama had a slow start to the season with his shooting, but he has turned things around in his last three games. He made history with a 50-point game against the Washington Wizards, becoming the fourth-youngest player ever to achieve this milestone in the NBA. What makes this even more impressive is that Wembanyama is the youngest center to ever score 50 points in a game, beating out legends like Shaquille O’Neal.

In addition to his scoring prowess, Wembanyama also made history by becoming the first Spurs player to score 50 points and make at least five 3-pointers in a game. While he didn’t achieve a “Wembygami” stat line, he joined an exclusive club of players who have put up impressive numbers in multiple categories in a single game.

What’s most important about Wembanyama’s 50-point game is how he got there. His improved 3-point shooting percentage over the past three games shows that he is capable of being a threat both inside and outside the paint. If he can continue to shoot at a high level from deep, he will be a force to be reckoned with in the NBA.

Overall, Wembanyama’s performance against the Wizards showcased his potential as a dominant scorer in the league. His ability to score from all over the court, combined with his size and skill set, makes him a unique and dangerous player for opposing teams to face. As he continues to develop and refine his game, Wembanyama has the opportunity to leave a lasting impact on the NBA and etch his name in the history books as one of the greats.
