While the result is obviously pleasing for Spurs, on an individual level, it was Wembanyama who once again grabbed the headlines.<\/p>\n

His box-core score aside, the No. 1 pick in the 2023 NBA Draft delivered a vicious dunk that left many fans with their jaws on the floor.<\/p>\n

San Antonio’s Devin Vassell drove the ball to the hoop before distributing the ball to Wembanyama.<\/p>\n

The Frenchman jumped and reached Miami’s Thomas Bryant to slam the ball for a thunderous dunk.<\/p>\n

It was just one of many stunning moments as Wembanyama scored for Spurs.<\/p>\n

The only player who came close to matching the rookie’s point total was Vassell, who scored 21 points while no other San Antonio player scored more than 11.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’m still learning how to do certain things defensively, defending positions, for example,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’m really learning a lot and also trying to expand my tools in defense,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Wembanyama said he felt he and the team were developing a mutual understanding.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think we are on the right track. We still have a lot to learn about ourselves and our teammates, but we are on the right track,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cPersonally, I try to apply what the coach says. I’m learning a lot, a lot of new things, and I think it all depends on our individual sacrifices,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Considered one of the most exciting<\/a> talents to enter the league in years, Wembanyama said he has been impressed by how quickly his teammates have adapted to his skill set, well beyond the standard for such a tall player.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor most of my short career so far, my teammates have had to learn to play with me because sometimes I know they are surprised to see me do certain things,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

“But the surprise of coming here is that I’m now playing in the best league in the world, and the guys are learning faster. I feel like we already have a connection, all of us, and I’m in really grateful,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

<\/a>San Antonio’s regular season opener is at home on October 25 against Dallas.<\/p>\n

As for the Heat, Jamal Cain was their most impressive player on the court with a double-double thanks to his 24 points and 10 rebounds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
