Wembanyama Sets NBA Postseason Block Record

Victor Wembanyama posted 11 blocks in the Spurs’ 1‑st playoff game against the Timberwolves, eclipsing the previous record of 10.

Victor Wembanyama set a new NBA postseason single‑game record with 11 blocks in the Spurs’ Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He had already tallied 10 blocks by the end of the third quarter and added a final block in the fourth to set the mark, joining only Hakeem Olajuwon, Mark Eaton and Andrew Bynum in that exclusive club. The Spurs won the game, with Wembanyama’s defensive effort anchoring a tight contest that remained level through halftime. fishroad-app.com
