Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs were looking for a composed response after his first career ejection in Game 4. They got exactly that along with a dominant all-around showing that left the Minnesota Timberwolves overwhelmed.
As the Spurs beat the Wolves 126-97 on Tuesday night to take a 3-2 lead in their second-round series, analyst Colin Cowherd said that Wembanyama and the Spurs could be laying the foundation for a future NBA dynasty.
āOff his ejection, 27.17 rebounds, highest plus minus for the Spurs, three blocks, more assists than anybody the Timberwolves had,ā Cowherd said. āIt's inevitable. Last night felt like to me the beginning of the end to every NBA franchise not named Oklahoma City for the next decade.
āMinnesota is long, athletic, and deep. Incredibly well coached. They're built specifically to stop a Nikola Jokic or a Wembyā¦ I can't watch the Spurs, who outscored Minnesota, built to beat them in every quarter. Every quarter. The maturity of Wemby Frustrated. What would he be like? Undeniable and invincible.ā
