Victor Wembanyama, Spurs surge in Post’s NBA Power Rankings
The San Antonio Spurs are ranked first in this week’s NBA power rankings after winning 11 consecutive games, including a blowout of the Warriors. Their rise reflects strong play at both ends of the court and Victor Wembanyama’s MVP-calibre form, making them the league’s hottest team.
The Los Angeles Lakers are second after seven straight wins, while Boston climbs from eighth to third following a statement victory over Philadelphia.

The rankings also note Houston’s three-game winning run, Minnesota’s success without Anthony Edwards, and Golden State’s challenge after Stephen Curry suffered a torn oblique.
In short
- San Antonio tops the rankings on an 11-game winning streak.
- Wembanyama is playing at an MVP-calibre level.
- The Lakers are second and Boston rises to third.
