    Will we finally win a game that we're betting favorites in?

    Wembanyama only played 24 minutes last night.

    He needs to rest? Is that why he's not playing tonight?

    Both teams must know how much a loss is worth?

    This one has the potential to be very very ugly basketball.

    I think the game could be less ugly than last night because of the absence of Wembanyama blocking and altering shots around the hoop.

    It’s sad. That is too bad. Maybe he can still get a decent game at least?
