The top two NBA prospects - Victor Wembanyama and Scoot Henderson - battled against each other in one of the most anticipated matchups recently. Henderson's G-League Ignite took the win 122-115 (30-24, 41-28, 20-36, 31-27) against the French center's Metropolitans 92 but team stats were put to the background.

All eyes were on the two top talents who delivered what the fans hoped and more. Wembanyama finished the match with 37 points, making 7 three-pointers out of 11, 4 rebounds, and 5 blocks in his account.

Henderson, meanwhile, had 28 points, 5 rebounds, and 9 assists.
