Jeremy Sochan and Devin Vassell combine for 52 points in the first win without Victor Wembanyama.

Coming off a blowout to the Phoenix Suns at home this past Friday, the Spurs were looking to clinch the season series with a win Monday night. They had to battle without Victor Wembanyama who was out due to a left ankle sprain. He is considered day-to-day. Many did not expect the Spurs to win, but the Spurs kept pace with the Suns for the whole game. The Spurs even led by nine late in the fourth, but the Suns came back to take the lead with around a minute left. That is when Jeremy Sochan knocked down a go-ahead three with 29 seconds left. After two threes were missed by Kevin Durant and Devin Booker, the Spurs got the rebound to secure the win. The Spurs also won the season series 3-1.

Jeremy had one of his best stat lines of the season: 26 points, 18 rebounds, an assist, a steal, and a block. He also had no turnovers. According to @statmamba on X, Jeremy is the youngest player in NBA history to put up those numbers in a game. Spurs fans who doubted him have to be shaking in their boots.
