Despite the early deficit, however, there was no shortage of highlight plays from Victor Wembanyama and rookie guard Stephon Castle in transition. Both players found an opening and made a play to generate some positive momentum, and it earned some positive traction on social media.

To make things worse, Spurs star Victor Wembanyama was clearly not himself after the loss on Monday. Wembanyama was questionable entering the game due to an illness, although he ended up playing and scored 27 points with 10 assists in 31 minutes. After the game, Wembanyama said his wind wasn't there.
