NBA – Spurs’ new disastrous defeat, “Weak and aggressive” – ​​Victor Wembanyama criticized by fans: You guys are really too much!

Victor Wembanyama, the highly talented young star of the San Antonio Spurs, has recently faced intense criticism from fans following another painful loss. Despite his impressive defensive contributions—averaging 3.7 blocks and 1.6 steals per game—his offensive struggles have become a major talking point. His shooting efficiency has dropped significantly, with a field goal percentage of just 41.3% and a three-point percentage of only 22.6%. Additionally, his scoring average has declined to 17.7 points per game, 3.7 points lower than his rookie season. These struggles have fueled frustration among Spurs supporters, who expected him to carry the team to greater success.

The pressure mounted even further during a recent game against the Los Angeles Clippers, where Wembanyama expressed his frustration with officiating.

After being shoved by Ivica Zubac without a foul call, he openly voiced his disappointment, stating that he felt unfairly treated by the referees.

When asked whether he believed he was receiving fair calls, his response was a blunt “No.”

This remark has sparked further debate, with some defending him and others accusing him of making excuses.

Wembanyama has since responded to the criticism, saying that some of the backlash from fans has been excessive and unfair.

While acknowledging his struggles, he emphasized that he is still adapting to the intensity of the NBA.

As a young player with immense potential, he remains focused on improving his game, but it is clear that the weight of expectations is growing heavier.

Still no victory for the Spurs, who are now far from the playoffs in the West.

The franchise is playing for its qualification soon and Victor Wembanyama does not seem to be at his best.

A turning point in this campaign.

And in the end, it is another defeat by one point for the Spurs. They had to bow out on the score of 111-112 against the Magic this Saturday night, despite 25 points from Devin Vassell.

With a small 3/11 shooting and 9 units, De’Aaron Fox did not shine in this game.

We could say the same thing about Victor Wembanyama.

With 18 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 steals and 4 blocks, the Frenchman was once again omnipresent on the court.

The problem? His defense hasn’t been great and he still seems exhausted, far from 100%.

Not necessarily surprising since we’ve known for a while that he’s been suffering from allergies, and the consequences are significant.

New disappointment for the Spurs

Because the Spurs now have a record of 22-28. The play-in race is not over, but catching up with teams like the Warriors, who just got Jimmy Butler, will become a huge problem.

The Texans must react next week, starting with Wemby, criticized for this controversial sequence.

“How can they give him a time-out?”

The time-out was given to the Magic here at the request of the player, which then allowed the franchise to keep possession and score.

But others are mainly wondering how Wembanyama doesn’t secure the rebound. A lot of criticism against the Frenchman, far from being at the level.

@Honey_7776: “He shouldn’t have had the chance. Wemby and Vassell are right there. Wemby also gave up another rebound for Paolo Banchero, he’s not focused.”

@RealPjHoops: “Victor Wembanyama didn’t play well tonight. He looks exhausted and weak in aggression.”

@N_Magaro: “Victor Wembanyama looks tired on defense right now. Allergies, fitness, or both, the last few games are tough for him.”

Victor Wembanyama is clearly struggling, to the point where the Spurs are moving away from the postseason.

Rest needed? That’ll be up to San Antonio to decide. But Mitch Johnson’s men have to come up with something else.
