With him on the court, Metropolitans had a plus-minus rating of +26, without him, it was -20. In the end, the French team bounced back after losing two days ago and won the matchup 112-106 (25-21, 30-35, 19-30, 38-20).

Wembanyama will now return to France to compete in the French Basketball League (LNB), with the next match scheduled on October 15th.
