Nets 29 points with full line
Wembanyama finished with 29 points (11-21 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-8 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, two steals and four blocks over 40 minutes during Friday's 105-104 Game 2 loss to the Knicks in the NBA Finals.
Analysis
It was a tale of two halves for Wembanyama, who was held to just seven points in the first half before erupting for 22 after the break. However, he also committed a team-high four turnovers, and the last one proved costly, as an errant pass ricocheted off Stephon Castle's back with 9.5 seconds remaining in regulation. Still, the Spurs had a chance to pull out the win, but Wembanyama's 20-foot jumper clanked off the rim at the buzzer. The Spurs are now facing a 0-2 deficit with the series heading to New York for Game 3 on Monday.

Struggles with shot in Game 1 loss
Wembanyama finished with 26 points (6-21 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 12-13 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists, one steal and three blocks over 38 minutes during Wednesday's 105-95 Game 1 loss of the NBA Finals to the Knicks.
Analysis
In addition to the poor shooting, Wembanyama also committed a game-high six turnovers, and he acknowledged after the game that it wasn't his best performance. "I'm gonna figure it out," said Wembanyama per Spurs' reporter, Tom Petrini. "I was bad tonight. It's not more complicated than that." The 22-year-old will look to bounce back in Game 2 on Friday.
