Wembanyama Leads Spurs to Undefeated Start Ahead of Raptors Clash

The San Antonio Spurs continue their hot start to the NBA season, entering Monday’s matchup against the Toronto Raptors undefeated through three games. The team’s early success is largely powered by Victor Wembanyama, who is delivering historic performances on both ends of the floor.

Wembanyama is averaging 33.3 points and 13.3 rebounds per game, while also swatting an astonishing 6 blocks per contest, outblocking more than 24 NBA teams combined. His defensive dominance has been a major factor in the Spurs’ first 3-0 start since 2019. Supporting him are Devin Vassell with 17.3 points, rookie Dylan Harper adding 16 points, and Stephon Castle contributing 17 points and five assists per game. The Spurs’ young core is showing confidence and cohesion early in the season.

The Toronto Raptors, with a 1-2 record, face an uphill battle. Scottie Barnes leads the team with 24 points per game, supported by Brandon Ingram and RJ Barrett, both scoring over 20 points each. Toronto’s offense, which relies heavily on driving to the basket, clashes with San Antonio’s interior defense. The Raptors will need exceptional outside shooting and consistent defense to overcome Wembanyama’s impact.

With their defensive anchor in place and a balanced supporting cast, the Spurs are favored to extend their undefeated streak. Wembanyama’s rim protection and game-changing presence make San Antonio the strong favorites in this early-season showdown.
