SAN ANTONIO — With his team mired in a double-digit losing streak, San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich has tried shaking things up with his starting lineup.
On Friday, that meant moving rookie sensation Victor Wembanyama to the center spot and surrounding him with four perimeter players in the starting group for the first time this season.
But despite the move, the result stayed the same. The Spurs dropped their franchise-record-tying 16th consecutive game, a 121-112 loss to the Chicago Bulls.
San Antonio is 3-18 this season, their worst start in franchise history through 21 games. They lost despite a huge night from Wembanyama: 21 points, 20 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 blocks.
