Season-best performance
Kornet ended with 23 points (10-12 FG, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and five blocks across 31 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 115-110 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Analyse
Kornet erupted for a season-high 23 points while also matching his season high with five blocked shots. Victor Wembanyama missed his second straight game due to a knee injury, affording Kornet starter-level minutes. It appears as though Wembanyama could return as soon as Tuesday, meaning Kornet's run of production could come to an end sooner rather than later. With that said, he is worth holding, at least until Wembanyama is back to playing starter-level minutes himself.

Starting Friday
Kornet is in the Spurs' starting lineup against the Pacers on Friday.
Analyse
Kornet will return to the Spurs' starting lineup with Victor Wembanyama (knee) out. Kornet started 17 regular-season games while Wembanyama was sidelined due to a calf injury, and over that span the former averaged 7.6 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.6 blocks over 25.9 minutes per game.

Grabs nine boards in win
Kornet had seven points (3-4 FG, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and one block over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 134-132 victory over New York.
Analyse
Kornet grabbed nine rebounds for the second straight game, although the bigger talking point was the fact that Victor Wembanyama suffered a knee injury, limiting him to just 24 minutes. While the initial diagnosis is relatively positive, there is certainly a chance he could miss at least a couple of games, thrusting Kornet back into the standard league discussion.

Lends support under basket
Kornet racked up 10 points (3-4 FG, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 23 minutes during Monday's 113-101 loss to the Cavaliers.
Analyse
Although Kornet was a direct replacement for Victor Wembanyama during the game, the duo actually shared the floor for a few minutes in the first quarter. The team was quite effective in this setup, as they closed the gap with a 14-3 run to end the quarter. This could be a scheme that the Spurs could utilize more frequently in the future, as the scenario benefited both players.
