The Spurs won against the Houston Rockets, thanks to the clutch performance of Victor Wembanyama, who had 21 points, 12 rebounds, and three blocks. Despite the positive outcome, the 7-foot-4 center still experienced a bit of scolding from head coach, Gregg Popovich.
Wemby admitted that he made a mistake and was deserving of the scolding he received from the Hall of Fame coach. He talked about it after their 126-122 overtime win.
"I forgot a play," Wembanyama said. "I forgot one play that we added today actually. It’s a rookie mistake. 100% legitimate for him to yell at me in that moment. I apologized after the game."
Wemby has displayed incredible maturity in how he handles things and doesn't take criticism personally. That's a good sign for the Spurs, who are looking forward to building a championship roster around the French standout.
