San Antonio Spurs-Rockets preview & Wembanyama as face of the league
The San Antonio Spurs are gearing up for an intense Texas showdown against the Houston Rockets. Is Wembanyama already becoming the face of the NBA?
Host Jeff Garcia and guest from Box Score Studio, Rudy Campos, break down the tactical keys to a San Antonio Spurs victory over the Rockets, including defending the perimeter, controlling the boards, and the importance of guard play from Stephon Castle and Dylan Harper. With both teams boasting elite rebounding and high-octane offenses, this matchup promises fireworks and playoff-level intensity.
The conversation takes on a bigger question: Is Victor Wembanyama ready to embrace the “face of the NBA” mantle as LeBron James, Kevin Durant, and Stephen Curry enter their twilight years? Insights cover Anthony Edwards’ recent comments, comparisons to Nikola Jokić and Giannis Antetokounmpo, and what it really means to become the league’s global icon.

The last player who was as impressive as Wemby is explosive DRose before injury.
Rudy always keeps it real!
Vic guards KD, Luke/Keldon on Sengun
As far as face of the league, Wemby isn’t there yet. It’s coming but when the day comes where he wins his NBA Championship and Olympic Gold Medal. Giannis, Luka, Jokic, and Shai all secretly know it’s him. It’s just not time for it to be passed on to him
GSG😊
Giannis and Joker are co-faces of the league right now. But if Wemby gets one ring, it’s him immediately.
Rudy keeping it real but WAY off…..That’s why he won’t show himself on camera 🤣.
I'm ready. I was there for Magic and Bird. Jordan and Kobe, Steph and LeBron, so it's time. I do not run to my TV to see anybody else.
Rudy doesn’t know what he’s talking about
