San Antonio Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama had a breakout performance in his second NBA Summer League game Sunday night, dropping 27 points in a loss to the Portland Trail Blazers.

This year’s top pick in the NBA Draft added 12 rebounds, but the Spurs lost the matchup 85-80. It was a good bounce back from the French phenom after ending up in single digits in his first appearance.

"I was just getting going," he said.

"I wish we would have won the game. I think I could have done more. ... Have to keep learning."

Wembanyama was 9-of-14 from the floor and 7-of-12 from the free-throw line. He was only 2-of-13 from the field in the Spurs’ summer-opening win over the Charlotte Hornets on Friday.

"It's normal to get better every game," he added.

Sure, there is a little bit more pressure on the 19-year-old big man than just the regular rookies.

Wembanyama was thrust into the national spotlight last week when his security team appeared to have an incident with pop sensation Britney Spears. The issue developed into a war of words between Spears and the security team with the singer demanding an apology.
