SAN ANTONIO — Clippers center Ivica Zubac added 21 points and 22 rebounds in an intense battle with San Antonio star Victor Wembanyama as the Clippers rallied to beat the San Antonio Spurs 128-116 on Wednesday night. Wembanyama had 23 points and 12 rebounds for the Spurs. They have lost five of six.
If there was any fear about Victor Wembanyama's adjustment to the NBA, it had to do with his frame. Wembanyama is one of the NBA's tallest players at 7-foot-3, but he is very skinny for his height and will almost certainly bulk up with more time in San Antonio's strength and conditioning program.
Spurs star Victor Wembanyama opened up on his frustrations with a perceived lack of foul calls after the Ivica Zubac incident.
Zubac yelled at the officials earlier in the third quarter for not calling a foul on Harrison Barnes after the Spurs forward blocked his layup. The frustration boiled over when Wembanyama blocked Zubac's attempted dunk with 4:49 remaining in the third quarter and no foul was called.
Kawhi Leonard poured in a season-high 27 points and Ivica Zubac amassed 21 points and 22 rebounds as the Los Angeles Clippers dominated the final five minutes on the way to a 128-116 win over the host San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday.
