Victor Wembanyama has yet another historic stat line

Sunday's game marked the eighth instance of Wemby putting up a first-time-ever stat line this season and the fourth time he had at least 30 points, 10 rebounds and five blocks in a game, the third most by a rookie since blocks were recorded in 1973.

Some of Wembanyama's feats this season include him becoming the youngest player to register a 20-20 game (on Dec. 8), the first teenager to register 20-plus points, five rebounds, five assists and five blocks in a game (Dec. 28), youngest to tally a 5×5 state line (on Feb. 23), and most recently, the first rookie with a 40-20 game since Shaquille O'Neal in 1993 (March 29).  

One could argue that Wemby's first-time-ever stats are due to his benefitting from the three-point shot. After all, Wilt Chamberlain and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar didn't shoot threes while they were putting up monster stat lines. But that's what makes Wembanyama the personification of the hybrid big man. He's what you'd get if Dikembe Mutombo had Kevin Durant's jump shot.
