    7 points, 8 rebounds and 3 blocks on 3-3 shooting in 13 minutes....not bad at all.

    thought scoot was awful for the most part tonight. got his points from getting up attempts but had a miserable impact on the game.

    was world beaters last game, putrid tonight. them's the breaks for a 19 yr old PG.

    love to see development but also would at times like to fast forward a few years.

    I'm not sure 5 assists counts as "almost a triple double". That would be saying like he almost had 60 points.

    *kingspeed voice* I don’t get why Wembanyama is so hyped, he barely outscored Jerami Grant who everyone says is garbage.

    Figures it's in a loss to one of the worst teams in the league.

    Wemby’s stat line is just ridiculous.

    30 pts, 6 rebs, 6 assts, 7 blocks.

    We were just one number away…

    He wasn't great, but I'm not going to freak out about him running the show just yet.

    I will say, if this is the production we get from him a the #1 play-maker role, I think all parties would be better playing him off the ball again. There is such thing as gaining bad experience and I don't want that for him.

    Let's make a new thread to get Badji a real NBA contract immediately.

    We were one lottery ball number away from getting the #1 pick.

    Weird stat that means absolutely nothing...but Badji had a +11 when everyone else on the team was a minus.

    Blazers radio trying to dilute Wemby's big night. "no, yah, he wasn't dominating or anything."
    30/6/6/7 is totally "meh" for sure

    Badji with almost double-digit rebounds in his first 'real' game. Saw some things out there (even in garbage time) that are intruiging.

    It was against the Blazers. Not really a surprise.
