The Spurs scored 18 points and the Nets tried to close the gap before the second-quarter buzzer sounded. Nets forward Nic Claxton took a casual short jumper with 40.1 seconds left, but Wembanyama blocked it. Nets forward Terance Mann took an offensive rebound and attempted to fire the ball into the net, but his shot was blocked by Wembanyama.
Brooklyn missed its second offensive rebound and the ball ended up in Vembanyama's hands.
The 7-foot-3 Frenchman dribbled the ball down the floor and hit a three-pointer.

It was just such a game for Spurs. Wembanyama had 31 points, 14 rebounds, six blocks, four assists and three steals. It was the 23rd time in the third-year's career that he recorded at least six blocked shots in a game.
The NBA said Wembanyama became the first player in history to score at least 100 points and record at least 15 blocks in the first three games of the season. He had 40 points and three blocked shots against Dallas Mavericks and 29 points and nine blocks against the New Orleans Pelicans.
The Spurs start the season 3-0.
