Highlights: Victor Wembanyama's triple-double leads Spurs' comeback over Kings

Today at 11:03 AM

The Spurs broke a franchise record with 23 made threes in a game.

Coming off a tough loss against the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday, the Spurs traveled to Sacramento to take on the Kings in hopes of securing a win. The Spurs started slow, falling behind the Kings 42-28 after the first quarter. After a hard-fought second and third quarter, the Spurs were down by five. The fourth quarter was a back-and-forth affair, and Victor Wembanyama was clutch on both ends. Even with De'Aaron Fox and Malik Monk nailing clutch threes, Devin Vassell and Chris Paul matched them, and the Spurs escaped with a 127-125 win. They also set a new franchise record with 23 threes made in a game.

Victor Wembanyama dropped his first triple-double this season and third of his career: 34 points, 14 rebounds, 11 assists, three blocks and a steal. He again dominated the highlights with deep threes and clutch plays on both ends. He continues to be a literal cheat code.

Unfortunately, Tre had to leave the game early with a shoulder injury after colliding with Sabonis.

This was a great comeback win for this young team! The Spurs this year have shown that they are a second-half team that will not give up easily. Also, when your team breaks a franchise record for most threes in a game (23), it's safe to say you're likely to win most games.
