Playing with someone like Victor Wembanyama on the San Antonio Spurs is like a cheat code, and one of his teammates compared it to getting hot in the Call of Duty video games.

After the Spurs’ Game 1 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference Finals (WCF), Keldon Johnson discussed Wemby’s insane three-pointer that sent the game to double overtime. He couldn’t help but compare it to a huge kill streak in Call of Duty.

“If you ever play Call of Duty, and you get a 25 kill streak, it feels like he dropped a nuke down on the court,” said Johnson. “It was crazy. That was a big time shot.”
