2026年3月6日，星期五，在圣安东尼奥举行的NBA常规赛中，圣安东尼奥马刺队球员维克托·文班亚马（中）、德阿隆·福克斯（4号）和凯尔登·约翰逊在击败洛杉矶快船队后庆祝胜利。
当终场哨声响起，在马刺以116-112逆转快船的惊险胜利后，维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 高举双臂欢庆，随后踉跄几步，倒在了队友德阿隆·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 的怀里。
“从第一节起，我就觉得自己快要累晕过去了，”文班亚马在赛场边接受ESPN采访时动情地说道，“这几乎是我职业生涯打得最艰难的一场比赛。”
不久后在接受记者采访时，他表示自己在挑战极限后已经精疲力竭。
“我有多累？现在我已经彻底被掏空了，所以我庆幸比赛没有进入加时，”文班亚马说道。
尽管这位22岁的法国小将感到极度疲劳，但他也感到心潮澎湃，他称这段经历“绝对是篮球生涯中最棒的30小时，也是我生命中最棒的30小时”。
这一切始于周四晚上以121-106完胜底特律活塞——这是马刺在11天内第二次击败这支球风硬朗的东部领头羊。在那场比赛中，文班亚马在39分钟内砍下38分、16个篮板和5次盖帽，这也是他自赛季初期出战40分钟以来的最高值。
随后便是周五晚上对阵一贯强硬的卡怀·伦纳德 (Kawhi Leonard) 及其势头正盛的快船队的剧情。
“那是我人生中参与过的最精彩的比赛之一，”文班亚马说道。
文班亚马在短短22分钟内得到27分、10个篮板和4次盖帽；朱利安·尚帕尼 (Julian Champagnie) 在几乎因膝盖酸痛缺阵的情况下，命中5记三分球，砍下20分。马刺在一度落后25分的情况下完成大逆转，创下了自1996年文字直播时代以来队史第二大的逆转纪录，仅次于2017年3月8日对阵萨克拉门托国王时完成的28分逆转。
“我想说，这展现了极强的韧性，极强的韧性，”马刺主帅米奇·约翰逊 (Mitch Johnson) 说道。
福克斯在第四节拿下了他19分中的10分，并送出全队最高的9次助攻。马刺在取得三连胜且在过去15场比赛中赢下14场后，战绩提升至46胜17负。
马刺顶住了伦纳德面对旧主砍下30分9个篮板的冲击。布鲁克·洛佩斯 (Brook Lopez) 为洛杉矶快船贡献了26分，快船战绩下滑至30胜32负，三连胜遭到终结。
马刺在第三节曾以50-75落后，但他们在第四节开局打出一波18-5的高节奏进攻高潮，自首节中段以来首次反超。他们在末节以35-20的比分压制快船，现场18,711名满座观众陷入疯狂。
“现场噪音太大了，你什么都听不见，”尚帕尼说道，“我们完全听不到指令。我们告诉自己：‘这里太吵了，我们必须加强沟通，必须想点办法。’所以，真的要向球迷们致敬。”
在比赛还剩16秒时，文班亚马接到福克斯的长传快攻扣篮得手，帮助马刺以113-112锁定胜局。这次进攻始于文班亚马在弧顶防守伦纳德的三分远投，球弹框而出后落入福克斯手中，福克斯迅速找到了正全速奔向篮筐的文班亚马。
“那球传得太完美了，”文班亚马谈到福克斯精准的提前量传球时说道，“我甚至没伸手要球，因为我根本没时间。”
随后的回合中，尼古拉斯·巴图姆 (Nicolas Batum) 在一次诡异的进攻序列中失误，让马刺抓住了机会。他将球发给洛佩斯，洛佩斯又将球回传给仍站在界外的巴图姆。这一失误气得快船主帅泰伦·卢 (Ty Lue) 怒拍记录台。
斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 抢下自己罚球不中的篮板，随后在伦纳德和洛佩斯之间闪转腾挪，在比赛还剩1.4秒时上篮命中，锁定了胜局。
卡斯尔的补篮是最后3分28秒内唯一一个与福克斯无关的运动战进球。在那段时间里，这位两届全明星球员包揽了此前的四次得分或助攻。他在第四节打满12分钟，8投5中砍下10分，送出6次助攻且零失误，正负值达到+15。
“从掌控和主导比赛的角度来看，他接管了比赛，”约翰逊说道，“我们打得很快，有时我们需要慢下来进行战术组织。他把每个人都带到了正确的位置。我们得到了想要的对位，他在那方面表现得像个怪兽，统领了整个第四节。”
马刺还在第四节得到了卡特·布莱恩特 (Carter Bryant) 的5分关键得分，其中包括比赛还剩7分44秒时接到卡斯尔传球的空接扣篮，将比分追至96-97；以及还剩3分28秒时接到福克斯助攻命中的三分球，帮助马刺以106-103领先。在末节的9分钟内，布莱恩特还贡献了两次抢断，正负值为+14。
“他成熟了很多，他不再是个菜鸟了，”尚帕尼说道。
2026年3月6日，星期五，在圣安东尼奥举行的NBA常规赛上半场，圣安东尼奥马刺队中锋维克托·文班亚马（1号）面对洛杉矶快船队球员小德里克·琼斯（右二）和卡怀·伦纳德（2号）持球突破。
现在的马刺与上赛季那支以34胜48负收官、连续第六年无缘季后赛的球队已不可同日而语。
“对我来说，这场胜利意义非凡，”文班亚马说道，“如果是在两年前（当时马刺战绩22胜60负），我肯定无法预见我们能赢下这样的比赛。事实上，两年前的我们可能会输掉30或40分。”
“……我们一度落后25分，但没有人放弃。我的出场时间有限，其他首发球员的时间也有限，但每一个踏上球场的人都以某种方式提供了帮助。我看到最棒的一点是，没有人放弃任何事或任何人，大家都在互相支持。这就是为什么我（完全）信任这些家伙，我非常爱他们。与他们一起打球、同场竞技、每天见面，真是莫大的荣幸。”
尽管他深爱着队友，但文班亚马也很感激能在周六远离赛场。在周日晚间对阵休斯敦火箭（39胜23负）之前，他需要这个宝贵的休息日。那将是另一场全美直播的比赛，也是马刺连续六个主场赛程的中点。在弗罗斯特银行中心，马刺本赛季取得了23胜6负的战绩，并已豪取主场七连胜。
“我会好好睡一觉，”文班亚马说道，“好消息是我的身体没有任何极度酸痛的部位，所以没有特定的地方需要康复……我很健康。两个晚上的好睡眠就足够了，然后再做一些恢复、按摩之类的……这段时间我恢复得非常快。”
有一件事是肯定的：他应该能睡个安稳觉，因为他知道自己在过去的这两场比赛中已经倾尽所有。
“我最喜欢的部分是，”文班亚马说道，“在过去的这两场比赛中，我们面临了截然不同的考验，而我每一次都能挺身而出，给出回应。”

Wembanyama pushed to limit in dramatic comeback win over Clippers
San Antonio Spurs players Victor Wembanyama, center, De’Aaron Fox (4) and Keldon Johnson celebrate their win after an NBA basketball game against the Los Angeles Clippers, Friday, March 6, 2026, in San Antonio.
Victor Wembanyama raised his arms high in triumph before taking a few steps and collapsing onto teammate De’Aaron Fox after the final buzzer sounded in the Spurs’ thrilling 116-112 come-from-behind win over the Los Angeles Clippers.
“I thought I was about to pass out from the first quarter from exhaustion,” Wembanyama told ESPN in an emotional on-court interview. “That’s close to being the hardest game of my life.”
Talking to reporters a short time later, he said he was spent after pushing himself to the limit.
“How fatigued am I? I got zero left right now, so I’m glad it didn’t go into overtime," Wembanyama said.
But as exhausted as the 22-year-old Frenchman was, he also felt exhilarated after experiencing what he called “definitely the best 30 hours of basketball, the best 30 hours of my life.”
It all began with a satisfying 121-106 wire-to-wire victory over Detroit on Thursday night — the Spurs’ second win over the physical Eastern Conference leaders in 11 days — in which he had 38 points, 16 rebounds and five blocks in 39 minutes, the most since he logged 40 early in the season.
Then came Friday night’s drama against the always-tough Kawhi Leonard and the surging Clippers.
“That was one of the best games I’ve ever been a part of in my life,” he said.
Wembanyama had 27 points, 10 rebounds and four blocks in just 22 minutes, Julian Champagnie hit five 3s to finish with 20 points after almost sitting the game out due to a sore knee, and the Spurs rallied from a 25-point deficit to record their second biggest comeback since the play-by-play era began in 1996, falling just short of their 28-point rally over Sacramento on March 8, 2017.
“I’d say that’s a lot of character, a lot of character,” Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said.
De’Aaron Fox scored 10 of his 19 points in the fourth quarter and had a team-high nine assists for the Spurs, who improved to 46-17 after winning their third in a row and 14th in the last 15.
The Spurs withstood a 30-point, nine-rebound outing by Leonard against his former team. Brook Lopez added 26 points for Los Angeles, which fell to 30-32 and had a three-game winning streak snapped.
The Spurs trailed 75-50 in the third quarter, but they opened the fourth with a fast-paced 18-5 run to grab their first lead since midway through the first quarter. They went on to outscore the Clippers 35-20 in the final frame while the sellout crowd of 18,711 went wild.
“It was so loud, you couldn’t hear anything,” Champagnie said. “We couldn’t hear anything. We told ourselves, ‘It’s loud in here. We got to communicate. We got to figure something out.’ So, shout out to (the fans) for real.”
The Spurs went ahead for good 113-112 with 16 seconds left on a breakaway dunk by Wembanyama after he hauled in a long, sharp pass from Fox. The play began with Wembanyama defending Leonard on a straight-on 3-point attempt that bounced off the front of the rim into the hands of Fox, who quickly found the 7-foot-4 center as he sprinted toward the basket.
“That was perfect,” Wembanyama said of Fox’s pinpoint pass, which found its target in stride. “I didn’t even ask for it because I didn’t have time.”
The Spurs got a break when Nicolas Batum turned the ball over on the ensuing possession in an odd sequence. He inbounded the ball to Lopez, who passed it back to Batum while he was still standing out of bounds, a mistake that prompted Los Angeles coach Ty Lue to slam his hand down on the scorer’s table.
The Spurs secured the win when Stephon Castle rebounded his missed free throw and then darted between Leonard and Lopez to score on a layup with 1.4 seconds left.
Castle’s putback was the only field goal in the final 3:28 Fox didn’t have a hand in. The two-time All-Star either scored or assisted on the previous four buckets in that span to finish the fourth with 10 points on 5-of-8 shooting, six assists (without a turnover) and a plus-15 rating while playing all 12 minutes.
“He took over the game just in terms of how he was kind of managing and dictating it,” Johnson said. “We played fast. At times, we had to slow down just to get organized. He got everybody in the right spots. We had the matchups we were trying to get to, and he was a monster at that. He ran the whole fourth.”
The Spurs also got five big points from Carter Bryant in the fourth quarter via a lob dunk set up by Castle with 7:44 left that pulled the Spurs within 97-96 and a 3 with 3:28 remaining set up by Fox that gave the Spurs a 106-103 lead. In nine minutes in the quarter, Bryant also had two steals and finished with a plus-14 rating.
“He’s grown up a lot. That’s not a rookie any more,” Champagnie said.
San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (1) drives against Los Angeles Clippers’ Derrick Jones Jr., second from right, and Kawhi Leonard (2) during the first half of an NBA basketball game, Friday, March 6, 2026, in San Antonio.
And the Spurs are a far cry from the team that finished last season 34-48 to miss the playoffs for a sixth straight year.
“To me, it’s very meaningful, that win,” Wembanyama said. "It’s not a game I see us winning two years ago (when they finished 22-60), for sure. It’s actually a game I see us losing by 30 or 40 two years ago.
“…We were down 25 and nobody gave up. I had limited minutes. The starters had limited minutes. And everybody that set foot on the court helped one way or another. And the best thing I see is nobody gives up on anything or anybody. Everybody’s got everybody’s back. And that’s why I have (full) trust in these guys. I love them so much. It’s such a pleasure to play with them, to share the court, and just to see them every day.”
But as much as he loves his teammates, Wembanyama was grateful to be away from them Saturday, a much-needed day of rest before facing the Houston Rockets (39-23) Sunday night in another nationally televised game and the halfway point in a season-long six-game homestand at the Frost Bank Center, where the Spurs are 23-6 and have won seven straight.
“I’ll get a good night’s sleep,” Wembanyama said. “The good thing is I didn’t get any super sore point in my body, so I don’t have anything specific that needs to recover. … I’m healthy. And two good nights’ sleep, that’s going to be good enough. And then some good recovery, massage, whatever. … These days I recover really quickly.”
One thing is certain: His rest should be peaceful knowing he left it all out on the court the last two games.
“My favorite part,” Wembanyama said, “is we faced some very different trials over these past two games, and I’ve been able to answer the call every single on of them.”
