Spurs: Consistency is key if the Spurs want to make a run in the deep Western Conference! Having an MVP candidate come off the bench in V. Wembanyama is a luxury the Spurs are taking advantage of at this moment in time. The San Antonio Spurs defeated the Washington Wizards 119 to 94, and defeated the Atlanta Hawks 126 to 98, in the last two games to gain momentum as well as stack wins. WeM-VP is starting to heat up (15 points, 8 rebounds and 4 blocks in 15 minutes) against the Wizards and (26 points, 12 rebounds and 2 blocks against the Hawks), will eventually be back in the starting line-up, but his impact is MVP caliber no matter if he starts or comes off the bench! D. Harper (24 points against the Wizards) is getting more and more comfortable in his approach to the game. He shows no fear and is in total control of the Spurs potent bench unit. D. Vassell (18 points) and S. Castle (17 points) against both the Wizards and Hawks have been steady as starters at the 2 and 3 for the Spurs! They complement each other as D. Vassell is a shooter and S. Castle is a slasher! Winning the games you are suppose to win is key in keeping San Antonio in the thick of the crazy Western Conference playoff race!

Wizards: A. Sarr is a building block for the tanking Wizards. He can be a future NBA center but needs more pieces around to be truly effective!

Hawks: N. Alexander-Walker is still a dog when you discuss who the Hawks are and what they want to do when trying to win games. The Hawks are a drive and kick 3 point shooting type offense and are without T. Young. They need him back if they are to push for a play-in slot!
