2025年12月18日，周四，圣安东尼奥，在一场NBA比赛的上半场，圣安东尼奥马刺队后卫迪伦·哈珀 (2号) 突破华盛顿奇才队前锋马文·巴格利三世 (35号) 的防守。最终，圣安东尼奥以119-94击败华盛顿。
周四晚，新秀迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) 替补出场，砍下赛季新高的24分，帮助马刺队以119-94大胜战绩不佳的华盛顿奇才队。
德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell) 得到18分，而维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 则连续第三场替补登场，在下半场得到其全场15分中的13分。这是马刺自12月2日以来首次回到霜降银行中心（Frost Bank Center）比赛。
斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 贡献17分和6次助攻，朱利安·尚帕尼 (Julian Champagnie) 替补登场拿下12分。马刺队战绩提升至19胜7负，并取得四连胜——此连胜不包括周二晚在拉斯维加斯举行的NBA杯锦标赛决赛中负于纽约尼克斯队的比赛，该场比赛结果不计入常规赛战绩。
文班亚马在上半场还剩8分59秒时首次登场，引发现场18754名爆满观众的雷鸣般掌声。他全场出战17分钟，贡献了8个篮板、4次助攻和4次盖帽。据马刺队官方统计，他是NBA历史上第二位在出场时间不足20分钟内打出至少15分、8篮板、4助攻和4盖帽的球员。马刺方面的数据显示，赫伯·威廉姆斯 (Herb Williams) 曾在1983年仅用13分钟就达成了此项成就。
由于此前因小腿受伤连续缺席了12场比赛，文班亚马已是连续第三场受到上场时间限制。本场比赛是马刺队背靠背赛程的第一场，他们接下来将客场挑战亚特兰大。
在文班亚马第三节独得9分的引领下，马刺队该节以34-22的比分压制奇才队，从而掌控了比赛局势。
华盛顿队（4胜21负）方面，亚历克斯·萨尔 (Alex Saar) 得到全队最高的18分。布巴·卡林顿 (Bub Carrington) 贡献17分。奇才队在第四节以19-28的比分落后。
奇才队后卫马拉基·布兰纳姆 (Malaki Branham) 在去年夏天被马刺交易至华盛顿。本场比赛赛前，马刺队通过致敬视频欢迎他回归，而他也收获了现场观众的热烈掌声。
布兰纳姆在2022年选秀大会上被马刺以第20顺位选中，并在此效力了三个赛季。这位来自俄亥俄州立大学的球员本场因拇指受伤未能出战。本赛季至今，他在出战的11场比赛中场均上场8.0分钟，得到3.6分。
以下是马刺与奇才四天内两场对决中第一场的三个看点。
1. 哈珀表现出色——但未来更值得期待
这位榜眼秀全场投篮13中9，其中包括三分球5投3中，一举刷新了他在12月8日战胜新奥尔良鹈鹕队时创下的22分个人得分纪录。
同时，这也是对他上一场对阵尼克斯时表现的完美延续。在那场比赛中，他14投7中，其中三分球7投5中，砍下21分。
尽管哈珀近来表现优异，但这位天赋异禀、来自新泽西的年轻人仅仅是崭露头角。周四的比赛只是他本赛季的第16场。可以想象，一旦他更加适应NBA的节奏，进一步打磨外线投篮，并加深对对手的了解，他的表现将达到何种高度。
他的外线投射能力是其比赛中已经取得进步的一个方面。
“就是不断地投入训练，”他在谈到近期投篮进步的原因时说道。“我们就是不停地投、投、投，专注于正确的事情，无论是在赛前，还是在休息日去体育馆加练。就是保持这种连贯性，并努力让它变得更好。”
2. 文班亚马在有限时间内上演诸多精彩瞬间
刚在第二节登场不久，文班亚马就用一记不看人传球惊艳了全场观众，助攻卢克·科内特 (Luke Kornet) 轻松在内线得分。随后，这位身高7英尺4英寸的法国人在半场结束前4分28秒，以一次乔治·格文 (George Gervin) 式的经典指尖挑篮上篮，拿下了他本场比赛的第一分。
但文班亚马随后上演了比这两个镜头更精彩的瞬间：他先是在内线封盖了凯肖恩·乔治 (Kyshawn George) 的投篮，然后独自运球发动一条龙快攻，在罚球线附近过掉两名奇才球员，以一记暴扣终结进攻，帮助马刺在第三节还剩约五分钟时以79-65领先。
这场表演再次提醒人们，为何即便在文班亚马没有承担常规高负荷出场时间的比赛里，仍有如此多的球迷争相购买马刺队的门票。
“你看到的那些场面太疯狂了，”哈珀在谈到文班亚马的精彩表现时说。“在训练中，他每天都这么做。所以我想对我们来说，这只是家常便饭，但我能理解为什么从外界的角度看，会觉得‘哇哦’。”
3. 奇才的尚帕尼与马刺的尚帕尼如出一辙
奇才队前锋贾斯汀·尚帕尼 (Justin Champagnie) 与他的双胞胎兄弟朱利安拥有所有相同的特质。这一点，问问华盛顿主教练布莱恩·基夫 (Brian Keefe) 就知道了。
“自从他加入我们球队以来，他的表现一直非常出色，”基夫说。“首先，是他的人品和性格。他对待每一天的方式，以及他为人处世的态度，让我们更衣室里的每个人都非常尊重他。而在球场上，他的能量、冲抢进攻篮板的能力、空切、以及及时的盖帽和抢断都极具感染力。他为我们的球队带来了很多，最近的表现确实非常出色。”
马刺队的朱利安·尚帕尼本场比赛得到12分和7个篮板。奇才队的贾斯汀得到3分和全队最高的9个篮板。

3 takeaways as Spurs’ Dylan Harper scores 24 in rout of Wizards
San Antonio Spurs guard Dylan Harper (2) drives into the lane on Washington Wizards forward Marvin Bagley III (35) during the first half of an NBA game in San Antonio, Thursday, Dec. 18, 2025. San Antonio beat Washington 119-94.
Rookie Dylan Harper had a season-high 24 points off the bench to help the Spurs rout the lowly Washington Wizards 119-94 on Thursday night.
Devin Vassell scored 18 points and Victor Wembanyama came off the bench for the third straight game to score 13 of his 15 points in the second half in the Spurs’ first game at the Frost Bank Center since Dec. 2.
Stephon Castle had 17 points and six assists, and Julian Champagnie came off the bench for 12 points for the Spurs, who improved to 19-7 with their their fourth win in a row, excluding the loss to New York in the NBA Cup championship game on Tuesday night in Las Vegas, which didn’t count in the standings.
Wembanyama, who finished with 17 minutes after entering the game for the first time to loud applause from the sellout crowd of 18,754 with 8:59 left in the first half, also contributed eight rebounds, four assists and four blocks. According to the Spurs, he’s only the second player in NBA history to post 15/8/4/4 in under 20 minutes. Herb Williams did it in just 13 minutes in 1983, per the Spurs.
With the Spurs playing the first game of a back-to-back that will end in Atlanta, Wembanyama was on a minutes restriction for the third straight game after missing 12 in a row with an injured calf.
Paced by Wembanyama’s nine points, the Spurs outscored the Wizards 34-22 in the third quarter to take control of the game.
Alex Saar led Washington (4-21) with 18 points. Bub Carrington contributed 17 points for the Wizards, who were outscored 28-19 in the fourth quarter.
Wizards guard Malaki Branham, who the Spurs traded to Washington this past summer, received a nice round of applause after the Spurs welcomed him back with a pre-game tribute.
Branham spent three seasons with the Spurs after they selected him 20th overall in the 2022 draft. The Ohio State alumnus was inactive due to a thumb injury after entering the game averaging only 3.6 points in 8.0 minutes over 11 games.
Here are three takeaways from the first of two games the Spurs will play against the Wizards in four days.
1. Harper playing great — but the best is yet to come
The No. 2 overall pick hit 9 of 13 from the field, including 3 of 5 from 3-point range, on his way to eclipsing the 22 points he scored in a win at New Orleans on Dec. 8.
It also was a fitting follow up to the 21 points on 7 of 14, including 5 of 7 from deep, he scored against the Knicks.
As good as Harper has been lately, the high-ceiling New Jersey native is just scratching the surface. Thursday’s game was just his 16th of the season. Imagine what he’ll be doing once he becomes more comfortable with the NBA, hones his outside shot even more and increases his knowledge of his opponents.
One aspect of his game that’s already gotten better is his perimeter shooting.
“Just putting the work in,” he said of why it’s improved of late. “We just keep shooting, shooting, shooting, focusing on the right things, whether that’s pre-game, whether that’s my off day going to the gym and shooting. Just staying consistent with that and just trying to get that better.”
2. Wembanyama had plenty of highlights in limited minutes
Shortly after he entered the game in the second period, Wembanyama dazzled the crowd with a no-look pass that set up Luke Kornet for an easy inside bucket. The 7-foot-4 Frenchman’s first points then came on a George Gervin-style finger-roll drive with 4:28 left in the half.
But Wembanyama outdid those two highlights when he blocked an inside shot by Kyshawn George before dribbling to the other end on a one-man fastbreak he capped by blowing past a pair of Wizards in the lane for a slam that gave the Spurs a 79-65 lead with about five minutes left in the third quarter.
The performance was a reminder why so many fans scramble for Spurs tickets, even for games when Wembanyama doesn’t carry his usual heavy workload.
“The stuff you see is crazy,” Harper said of Wembanyama’s exploits. "In practice, he does that every day. So I think to us, it’s a regular day, but I can understand why from the outside looking in, it’s like, ‘Whoa.’ "
3. Washington’s Champagnie same as Spurs’ Champagnie
Wizards forward Justin Champagnie has all the same attributes as his twin brother Julian. Just ask Washington coach Brian Keefe.
“He’s been terrific since he joined our program," Keefe said. "First of all, his character as a person and as a human being. He’s one of the guys we really respect in our locker room from how he carries himself, how he approaches every day. But then with his play, it’s contagious with his energy and his ability to crash the offensive rebound, his cutting, his timely blocks and steals. Just brings a lot to our team and has really been playing here well lately.”
Julian Champagnie finished with 12 points and seven rebounds for the Spurs. Justin had three points and a team-high nine rebounds.
