The San Antonio Spurs blew out the Phoenix Suns on Monday night, extending their win streak to nine in a row. Victor Wembanyama's stellar play put the Spurs ahead early and allowed them to hold onto their lead without much trouble. He finished with another all-time performance.

So far this season, Wembanyama has normalized the impossible. In just 25 minutes of action, he posted 40 points, 11 rebounds, and nine blocks, going 11-for-12 in the paint and recording a plus/minus of +30. Plus/minus, at least according to Spurs broadcaster Sean Elliott, is an imperfect stat, although in this instance it perfectly demonstrates Wembanyama's dominance.

In addition to Wembanyama, both Keldon Johnson and Dylan Harper were able to push their puls/minus to 30 as well. While Wembanyama established the lead, it was Harper who hammered the final nail in the coffin, going off on a one-man run in the third quarter.

Harper finished with a respectable 17 points, five rebounds, and four assists. He did not make a single 3-pointer in the game.

14 of his 17, though, came in the third frame. He hit six of his seven field goals in that stretch, settling into the paint and midrange with ease. After a slow individual start, he kicked it into gear, earning praise from his head coach.

"He was not up to that standard at the start of the third quarter, and so there was a timeout, and we discussed that, and I thought he came out and had a great response to it, and it's unique, but as a 20-year-old, the standard he has set along with some of our younger players, they've set that, and so that's the expectation now, and so now that they've set that and that's the expectation, it's my job and our staff's job, and their job as well to hold each other accountable to that," summed up Mitch Johnson.

The rest of the Spurs are expected to follow suit. Wembanyama, of course, can seemingly "turn it on" whenever he wants. Stephon Castle, meanwhile, finished with only four points but was able to lead the team in assists with seven and contribute eight rebounds as well.

Even when Castle isn't standing out, he's still impacting winning.

The ability to overcome a slow start is one of the toughest things for young players in the NBA, so the fact that the Spurs have three guys under 23 years old who can do it (well, does Wemby ever turn it off?) bodes really well for their future, especially as they prepare for a second deep playoff run in a row.
