SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Victor Wembanyama had 24 points and 15 rebounds, and the San Antonio Spurs defeated the Toronto Raptors 121-103 on Monday night to match the best start in franchise history.<\/p>\n

San Antonio has opened a season 4-0 on four occasions, most recently in 2017, but the Spurs have never won their first five games.<\/p>\n

Stephon Castle added 22 points and Harrison Barnes had 18 for San Antonio, which did not win its fourth game until Nov. 7 last season.<\/p>\n

Toronto lost its third straight after winning its season opener.<\/p>\n

R.J. Barrett had 25 points, Collin Murray-Boyles added 19 and Immanuel Quickley had 15 for the Raptors.<\/p>\n

Wembanyama, who was named Western Conference player of the week earlier Monday, continued to dazzle spectators. He drove to the rim past Jakob Poeltl, made a 360-degree spin to avoid a charging Scottie Barnes and put the ball off the glass for a layup in the first half.<\/p>\n

Wembanyama finished 7 of 8 from the field and was 10 for 10 on free throws. <\/p>\n

Barrett scored 10 points in the third quarter after protesting that he was fouled by Julian Champagnie on a blocked layup attempt in the opening minute of the second half. <\/p>\n

Barrett’s dunk off a steal in the fourth quarter cut San Antonio’s lead to 101-93 with 7:55 remaining, but Toronto couldn’t get closer.<\/p>\n

Wembanyama blocked Barrett’s layup with 3:59 remaining for his 89th straight game with at least one blocked shot, breaking a tie with Patrick Ewing for the fourth-longest in league history. Ewing holds the record with 145 straight games with a block, followed by Atlanta’s Dikembe Mutombo (116) and Utah’s Mark Eaton (94).<\/p>\n

San Antonio had six players score in double figures and won its fourth straight against Toronto.<\/p>\n

Dylan Harper had 11 points to join Wembanyama, David Robinson and Willie Anderson as the only rookies in Spurs history to score in double figures in their first four games.<\/p>\n
