On the same day that it was revealed that Victor Wembanyama is done for the year due to a concerning season-ending injury, his teammates stepped up to the plate to secure a 120-109 victory against Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns .
At 26-27, the Suns are outside of even the Play-In Tournament, and after the San Antonio Spurs traded for De'Aaron Fox and the Portland Trail Blazers started a weird run of winning games, it's hard to imagine that the Suns will claw their way back into the postseason.
Spurs guard De'Aaron Fox addressed the expectations bestowed on him as he acclimates to his new surroundings in the Lone Star State. The veteran guard joins one of the youngest teams in the NBA. However, it isn't pressure he hasn't felt before, albeit at the collegiate level or during his time with the Kings.
Kevin Durant had a heated moment with former teammate Chris Paul during the Suns' game against the Spurs on Thursday night.
