Dalen Terry was a bit caught up on that air balled 3-pointer, but he was happy with his performance tonight: “I think when I’m out there, we have fun.”

Victor Wembanyama will sit out Tuesday’s game at Milwaukee due to right ankle soreness.
The injury isn’t considered serious, so the #Spurs expect to upgrade him to available for the game at Chicago on Thursday.
It will be only the second game the star rookie has missed. – 5:51 PM

Victor Wembanyama didn’t get to see the Spurs honor Tony Parker at halftime, but he made it clear after the game that such a ceremony made him proud of their shared French roots and inspires him to make history of his own.

Kevin Durant. Nikola Jokic. LeBron James.
Victor Wembanyama has checked off all of the above. Now, comes his 1st meeting with one of the players he says he’s “studied the most.”
On the 19-year-old’s admiration for Giannis and what they share in common.

With appearances before reporters after games good and bad (like last night), Victor Wembanyama is on track to joining an elite group of star players I’ve had the pleasure of covering who were always accountable: Cowboys safety Darren Woodson, Sean Elliott and Manu Ginobili. – 11:37 AM

Dave McMenamin: LeBron James says fatigue is hitting the Lakers from all angles. The team has spent 18 of the last 27 days on the road and will close out 2023 by spending six of the next 11 days away from home, too. pic.twitter.com/bXC45qxm6z -via Twitter @mcten / December 21, 2023
LeBron James passed Andrew Bogut in the blocks all-time list last night. He’s now No. 87 in the ranking. You might remember Bogut led the NBA in blocks one season. -via Twitter @hoopshype / December 21, 2023

Just two months into the season, and Chet Holmgren’s odds to win Rookie of the Year have already closed the gap on Wembanyama’s, even passing his odds at some sportsbooks. BetMGM still has Wembanyama as a slight favorite at -120 to -110, but FanDuel (-130) and DraftKings (-125) each give Holmgren the edge. FTW’s Bryan Kalbrosky elevated Holmgren over Wembanyama in his rookie rankings three weeks ago. -via USA Today / December 21, 2023
