With a game against the Denver Nuggets coming down to the final possession, Wembanyama was tasked with guarding three-time MVP Nikola Jokić with a one-point lead. Jokić, perhaps the most offensively effective player of a generation, turned to his signature Sombor Shuffle move for a game-winning basket.

Nov. 13: At 20 years and 314 days old, Wemby poured in a career-high 50 points on eight 3s, becoming the fourth-youngest player in NBA history to record a 50-piece, trailing only Brandon Jennings, LeBron James and Devin Booker.

The Spurs won 113-110 after Nikola Jokic committed a rare turnover in the final seconds of the game on Friday in Denver.
