Wemban's fifth rotation rest today! Refuting rumors that his teammates don't pass the ball to him, the goal is still the championship

On January 14, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued. In an interview, Wembanyama refuted rumors that his teammates were reluctant to pass the ball to Wembanyama, and bluntly stated that his goal was to win the championship. Meanwhile, he will be rested for today's game against the Bulls, his fifth break of the season.

In an interview, Wembanyama dismissed some of the recent claims, saying: "Of course, I've heard rumours that my teammates won't pass the ball to me, but that's not true. There's no one in our team who doesn't want to pass the ball to me, and I don't want to pass the ball to any teammate. ”

After beating the Hornets yesterday, the Spurs are finally on a winning streak. Speaking about his goals, Wembanyama said: "My goal is still to win the championship. I still need time to settle in with my team-mates, nothing to worry about, I think I'm being the focus of the team's attack and I hope I can keep playing because the team is on a winning streak. ”

It should be noted that Wembanyama's appearance is still under strict time control. But entering 2024, Wembanyama is extremely efficient, averaging 22.6 points, 9.8 rebounds and 3.2 blocks in 23.4 minutes per game in 2024, shooting 50.6% from the field. Thanks to such a good performance, he has overtaken the Thunder's Holmgren to regain the No. 1 spot on the rookie list.

So far this season, Wembanyama has appeared in 33 games, averaging 19.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, 3 assists, 1.1 steals and 3.1 blocks in 28.6 minutes per game, shooting 45% from the field and 29% from three-point range. The Spurs currently have a 7-30 record and are temporarily in the bottom of the West.
