San Antonio Spurs forward-center Victor Wembanyama has been named the NBA Western Conference Player of the Week for Week 20 of the 2025-26 season (March 2–8), after leading the team to a perfect 4-0 record.

Over the four-game stretch, Wembanyama posted 26 points, 10.5 rebounds, and 4.8 blocks per game, showcasing the all-around game that has made him one of the league’s brightest stars. His defensive presence and scoring versatility were crucial in helping the Spurs maintain their second-place standing in the Western Conference with a 47-14 record.

For the season, Wembanyama continues to impress, averaging 23.9 points, 11.1 rebounds, and 3.0 blocks across 50 appearances, solidifying his reputation as a franchise cornerstone.

While Wembanyama stole the spotlight in the West, the Eastern Conference Player of the Week honor went to Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro, who also enjoyed an outstanding week of performances.
