Mamukelashvili Scores 34 Points in 19 Minutes, Spurs Beat Knicks

Sandro Mamukelashvili made NBA history by scoring a career-high 34 points in just 19 minutes during the San Antonio Spurs' 120-105 victory over the New York Knicks. This remarkable feat marks the first time a player has scored 34 points while playing fewer than 20 minutes. Mamukelashvili showcased his shooting prowess, going 13-for-14 overall and a perfect 7-for-7 from three-point range, contributing significantly to the Spurs' commanding lead. His performance included 21 points in the fourth quarter, helping to secure the win despite the Spurs being without key players like Victor Wembanyama and De'Aaron Fox. The Knicks struggled offensively, particularly in the first half, which allowed the Spurs to establish a dominant position early in the game. This victory serves as an important morale boost for the Spurs amid injury challenges as they seek consistency moving forward.
