Wemby and Jokic went back and forth in an epic duel.
The rookie flirted with a quadruple-double, but it wasnât enough as the two-time MVP had 42 points.
Still, the focus was squarely on the former afterward.
“He’s the future of the NBA,” Malone said.

Big shot from KCP, who gets his first basket, an open transition corner three, to force a timeout from the Spurs.
Jokic is chucking floaters over Wemby right now, but that’s not a sustainable strategy. Someone’s gotta hit some threes. – 10:34 PM

ClutchPoints: â[The Rockets] have lost a couple in a row⊠Tomorrow will be an opportunity to end their season, their playoff hopes.â Draymond Green ahead of the Warriorsâ matchup with Houston 👀 (via @TheVolumeSports) pic.twitter.com/JtxGzqdf51 -via Twitter @ClutchPointsApp / April 3, 2024
âWhen heâs going against guys that are a little bit more athletic, he uses his brain a little bit more,â Irving said of Green. âAnd when heâs going against smaller guys, he uses his physicality. So he knows how to play kind of the in-between game on the defensive end.â Greenâs stand helped the Warriors (41-34) seal a 104-100 win, their fifth straight. The late-season surge can be directly tied to their improved defense. During the streak, theyâve held opponents to 92, 93, 97, 100 and 113 points. Theyâve posted a 102.9 defensive rating during the run. -via The Athletic / April 3, 2024
The Warriors are 1.5 back of a ninth-place Los Angeles Lakers team they face next week head-to-head with a chance to clinch the tiebreaker, so the ninth seed is obtainable. Theyâre still within faint reach of seventh (three games behind the Sacramento Kings and Phoenix Suns), thanks in large part to a sustained defensive effort. âWeâve seen teams in this league for years make the mistake of thinking they can just put a great offense out there, (have their) defense suck and think theyâre going to win,â Green said. âIf you run up against a team that doesnât even have to be as good offensively, but if theyâre competent on the offensive end and they play defense, youâre going to lose. So our defense, itâs a non-negotiable. We have to defend at that level.â -via The Athletic / April 3, 2024
 Entering Tuesday’s play, only one team leaguewide sported a nightly average scoring margin in negative double digits: Charlotte (18-57) at -10.6. The 18-57 Spurs (-7.0), 14-61 Wizards (-9.7) and 13-62 Pistons (-8.8) have all “improved” sufficiently defensively â San Antonio more legitimately so with a certain Victor Wembanyama as its anchor in the middle â to make their nightly average scoring margins more respectable and, more importantly, dodge any flirtations with the 1972-73 Philadelphia 76ers’ 9-73 record routinely associated by NBA historians with 82-game futility. -via marcstein.substack.com / April 3, 2024
Ryan Blackburn: Nikola Jokic on his dunk near Victor Wembanyama: “At least I’m going to be aggressive and try to dunk it. Like, why not? It was funny.” On if he said anything to Wemby after that dunk: “If you block one more shot, I’m going to-” *Pauses* “But he blocked like four after that,⊠-via Twitter @NBABlackburn / April 3, 2024
