Victor Wembanyama Exhausted but Spurs Cling to 10 Game Streak

Victor Wembanyama said he "didn't recover" and "couldn't sleep" before the Spurs' 110-107 win over the Raptors, admitting he "wasn't in shape" for the game. He scored 12 points on 3-of-12 shooting and has hit just 32.1 percent over the past two games. Still, San Antonio clawed back from a 90-75 deficit and stretched its winning streak to 10 games, showing they can win even when their star is off. Merlin sees the culprit in the calendar: quick trips from L.A. to Detroit to Toronto, then a back-to-back in Brooklyn before a marquee date at MSG. The Spurs’ depth carried them tonight, but fatigue is a real spell. If Wembanyama locks in sleep and treatment, the magic returns; if not, adults may need to lean harder on role players.
