Victor Wembanyama led the San Antonio Spurs to a decisive 126-102 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers, scoring 23 points and grabbing eight rebounds. Harrison Barnes played a pivotal role as well, contributing 17 points, ten of which came in a crucial fourth quarter. Despite a strong performance from Anthony Davis, who posted 30 points and 13 rebounds, and LeBron James, who added 18 points, the Lakers suffered their third consecutive loss.

The game marked the Lakers' first matchup at home since devastating wildfires struck the area, resulting in the postponement of two previous games.
