Wemby, Luka and Shai Went Crazy Last Night... Maybe Wilt Really Did Score 100

52, 24, and 8, and I almost threw up my morning coffee.

I cannot really wrap my head around this dude right here.

Victor Wembanyama put up career highs of 52 points and 24 rebounds, added 8 blocks, and somehow the Spurs only beat Dallas 112-111 on November 4.

This is a stat line that you just have to stare at for a while.

And you know what? The more I look at how he did it, the less sense it makes.

Somebody Set the Difficulty to Easy

We see the 50 balls. That's not new in the NBA. 20-rebound games are not common, but we've seen those too. Doing them together and adding in 8 fucking blocks means that you decided to play a basketball game on easy mode.

You took the 2K load screen, you selected your team, and you set the difficulty to easy as hell.

This makes no damn sense.

Wemby had 29 points, 15 rebounds and 5 blocks BY HALFTIME. On one second-quarter possession, he blocked three shots in 13 seconds. Cooper Flagg, P.J. Washington and Daniel Gafford all got a turn.

Three blocks. One possession. What are we doing here?

And here's what makes the final score even crazier: San Antonio outscored Dallas by 23 with Wemby on the court. Without him, the Spurs got outscored by 22. They won by ONE.

He even rolled his ankle in the fourth quarter, came back, and hit the free throw that ultimately won the game.

Now, after watching all of that, I have a confession to make.

Maybe Wilt Really Did Score 100

Wemby is one of those freaks that makes me understand why people back in the day talked about Wilt Chamberlain the way they did. Even Dylan Harper called Wemby "basically Wilt," and God damn it, I'm co-signing something that man said for the first time.

I think I'm willing to believe that Wilt scored 100.

I know what the record book says. I'm talking about actually being able to picture a guy doing that to another team of professional basketball players.

If Wemby can do this against NBA athletes in 2026, imagine what Wilt must've looked like going to work against the 19-whatever NBA talent.

A C-note? Yeah, I'm starting to see it. No disrespect to them.

I think I'm willing to believe that Wilt scored 100.

But we cannot have a 100-point conversation without giving Kobe Bryant's 81 its flowers.

January 22, 2006. Toronto Raptors. 81 points.

Kobe dropped 55 in the second half while bringing the Lakers back to win. That is the one time in my adult life watching basketball where I truly believed somebody could have gotten to 100.

And for the record, I don’t care that Bam dropped 83 unethical basketball points. It’s Wilt’s 100, then Kobe’s 81. You make your rules, I make mine.

For years, Kobe was the only guy I could picture hitting 100. Now? Wemby is on that list.

And so is the Lakers' current superstar.

Meanwhile, Luka

Luka's on a crazy run himself. He dropped 40 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists in the Lakers' 116-103 win over Sacramento.

That's six straight games with at least 35 points, joining Kobe and ElginBaylor as the only Lakers to do it. Add at least five rebounds, five assists and five made threes to every one of those games, and nobody in BA history had ever done that.

He's also scored 308 points in his first eight games. The first guy to top 300 through eight since Michael Jordan. And guess who's the only player ever to score more through eight? Wilt Chamberlain.

See? Wilt is all over the place today.

And Then There's Shai

We're not even talking about Shai's performance because this alien in San Antonio just put up a stat line I think should come with a nsfw label.

But Shai Gilgeous-Alexander just gave Cleveland 42 points and 8 assists in a 124-116 Thunder win. Two nights earlier, against those same Cavaliers, he dropped 43 and hit the go-ahead three with 32.6 seconds left.

43, then 42. Same team. Three days.

And somehow today, Shai isn't even the headline.

52, 24 and 8.

Let me get ready for work. If y’all have any tips for getting coffee stains out of button-ups, let me know.

Y’all have a great day. PEACE!
