After 8-of-16 3-point shooting was instrumental in the first 50-point game of the 20-year-old’s young career in a win over the Washington Wizards on Nov. 13, fellow long-range bomber Julian Champagnie, 38 of 111 on 3s this season, endorsed Wembanyama’s emulation of Steph Curry.

Victor Wembanyama put on a show Tuesday night during the San Antonio Spurs' win over the Utah Jazz. Wemby had 34 points, seven rebounds and three blocked shots. And one of those blocks was kind of a no-look block, as Jazz guard Johnny Juzang drove into the paint and waited for Wemby to look away before he sent up for a layup attempt.

Wembanyama had 34 points and seven rebounds as San Antonio pulled away late for a 128-115 win over the Jazz Tuesday at the Delta Center. With the loss, Utah has officially been eliminated from NBA Cup contention. San Antonio outscored Utah 32-22 in the fourth quarter, including an 11-3 run midway through the frame to take control.
