"
PHOENIX (AP) — Victor Wembanyama wrapped up another jaw-dropping performance on Monday night early in the fourth quarter, casually bringing the ball up the court before crossing over Khaman Maluach a few times, dribbling between his legs and then behind his back before gliding past him for an easy layup.It was a ridiculous moment for the 7-foot-4 center.
