Victor Wembanyama entered the NBA with an unprecedented amount of excitement. Through the first 51 games of his NBA career, he has managed to exceed expectations.

Wembanyama pulled off a rare statistical feat on Friday. The French phenom finished the game against the Los Angeles Lakers with a jaw-dropping stat line to achieve the coveted 5x5 game. 

Wembanyama record at least 5 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 5 steals and 5 blocks in a game to become just the second rookie in league history to record a 5x5 game. Jamaal Tinsley accomplished the feat in his rookie year more than two decades ago. However, Wembanyama who turned 20 in January, is the youngest player in NBA history to record a 5x5 game.
