San Antonio Spurs big man Victor Wembanyama joined a very exclusive club with his big game on Thursday. Wembanyama put together the second 5x5 game of his young career. That made him just the third player in NBA history with multiple 5x5 games, joining Hakeem Olajuwon and Andrei Kirilenko.
A 5x5 game is when a player records at least five points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks in the game same. The Spurs second-year star had his first 5x5 game during his rookie season.
Wembanyama finished the victory over the Utah Jazz with 25 points, nine rebounds, seven assists, five steals and five blocks.
Thursday's effort by Wembanyama was the 23rd 5x5 game in history. Olajuwon performed the feat six times, while Kirilenko did three times. 12 other players put together such a line one time apiece.
