In the NBA regular season, the Spurs defeated the Raptors 121-103. After the game, Bunyama accepted an interview with reporters.

Reporter: "Congratulations on winning the Player of the Week. I want to know, what do you think about winning this honor in the first week of the regular season?"

Wenbanyama said: "A little proud, but you know, I think the most important data is that before winning the Player of the Week, our team was 3 wins and 0 losses, three wins and no defeats. This was the goal I focused on. At that time, I felt, 'Oh, good, but there is still a game today.'"
