洛杉矶——周四晚上,圣安东尼奥马刺队球星维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 因右脚踝伤势管理缺席了球队以 118-99 战胜洛杉矶快船队的比赛。

这场比赛是马刺队背靠背赛程的第二场,他们在周三于旧金山击败了金州勇士队。在那场比赛中,文班亚马在 29 分钟的出场时间内狂砍 41 分和 18 个篮板。

周四早些时候,22 岁的文班亚马被评为 3 月份西部月度最佳防守球员,这也是他连续第三个月获得该奖项。在 3 月份的 15 场比赛中,文班亚马揽下 180 个篮板、全联盟最高的 56 次盖帽以及 20 次抢断。他场均 3.73 次盖帽领跑全联盟,同时场均还有 1.33 次抢断。此外,文班亚马有 10 场比赛送出 4 次或更多盖帽,6 场比赛贡献 2 次或更多抢断。

本赛季至今,文班亚马在场均 29.2 分钟的上场时间内,可以贡献 24.7 分、11.5 个篮板、3.0 次助攻、3.1 次盖帽和 1.1 次抢断。他的场均盖帽和篮板数据分别位列联盟第一和第五。

作为 NBA 年度最佳防守球员的头号热门以及激烈 MVP 争夺战中的有力竞争者,文班亚马本赛季在技术统计上已出战 62 场比赛(包括 NBA 杯决赛)。在周四的比赛之后,他必须在马刺队最后五场常规赛中至少出战三场,才能达到 65 场比赛的门槛,从而获得评选赛季末各项大奖的资格。

LOS ANGELES – San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama sat out Thursday night’s 118-99 win over the LA Clippers because of right ankle injury management.

The game fell on the second night of a back-to-back for the Spurs, who beat the Golden State Warriors in San Francisco on Wednesday. Wembanyama racked up 41 points and 18 rebounds in 29 minutes in that game.

Earlier Thursday, Wembanyama, 22, was named the Western Conference Defensive Player of the Month for March, the third consecutive month he has won that award. In 15 games in March, Wembanyama notched 180 rebounds, an NBA-high 56 blocks and 20 steals. His 3.73 blocks per game led the league, and he also tallied 1.33 steals per game. In addition, Wembanyama had 10 games with four or more blocks and six games with two or more steals.

On the season, Wembanyama is averaging 24.7 points, 11.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 3.1 blocks and 1.1 steals in 29.2 minutes. The blocks and rebounding averages rank first and fifth in the league, respectively.

The favorite to win NBA Defensive Player of the Year and a contender in the heated MVP race, Wembanyama technically has played in 62 games this season, including the NBA Cup final. After Thursday, he’ll have to play in three of the Spurs’ final five regular-season games to reach the 65-game threshold for postseason awards eligibility.
