Victor Wembanyama scores 40 points, blocks 8 shots against Suns

Victor Wembanyama posted 40 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists, 8 blocks, 2 threes and 1 turnover on 15-of-19 shooting and 8-of-10 from the line in 25 minutes as a starter on Monday, November 9, when San Antonio beat Phoenix 122-96.

The line was extraordinary, but Wembanyama was already averaging 61.1 fantasy points (default points scoring) over his previous 10 games and ranks second overall in nine-category leagues. His elite value was already priced in before this outing, so the performance does not justify any change to your roster strategy around him.
