In a nail-biting showdown at the United Center, the San Antonio Spurs clawed their way to a 121-117 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Monday night, November 10, 2025. The game showcased the Spurs' resilience, especially in the fourth quarter where they outscored the hosts 32-19 to flip a potential loss into their third straight win. San Antonio, now 8-2 and sitting pretty in second place in the West, proved why they're early contenders this season.
Leading the charge was Victor Wembanyama, the towering French phenom who erupted for 38 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists, and 5 blocks. He drained 6 of 9 threes and was perfect from the line at 10-for-10, including 18 points in the final frame alone. This performance etched him into NBA history as the first player to notch 35-plus points with 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 5 threes, and 5 swats in one game. De’Aaron Fox added 21 points in his second outing back, while Stephon Castle contributed 19 points and 11 dimes, and Luke Kornet chipped in 16.
The Bulls, slipping to 6-4 and sixth in the East, fought hard but faltered late. Without Josh Giddey sidelined by an ankle tweak, they shot a dismal 28% from the field in the fourth, allowing San Antonio to mount a 10-0 closing run. Ayo Dosunmu led Chicago with 20 points, but it wasn't enough to hold their earlier double-digit lead.
This matchup highlighted the Spurs' growing depth against a Bulls squad still finding its rhythm at home. As both teams push forward, one wonders how these young cores will evolve amid the league's fierce competition.
