We need to take a moment to appreciate the full context of Wembanyama's output tonight. He had a Wilt statline crossing the 50-point, 20-rebound, 5-block treshold. The fewest minutes Wilt ever did that in was 45. Wemby did it in 34 minutes. And he only hit one three, so it's not like it's a modern basketball thing that helped him get his scoring up so high. This was just old school post work and pick-and-roll madness. Wilt stuff. Even if you loop in a bunch of other players and cut it down to 40 points, only Bob Lanier ever did it in under 40 minutes (38). Wembanyama did this mostly through foul baiting in the post. It's a monumental achievement in his development.
