Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs have had two separate eight-game win streaks this season.

The San Antonio Spurs continued their impressive run on Monday, extending their current win streak to nine games with a 114-103 victory over the Detroit Pistons. The win halted Detroit’s own momentum, snapping a five-game winning streak for the Pistons.

Victor Wembanyama showcased a dominant all-around performance, finishing with 21 points, 17 rebounds, and 6 blocks. Devin Vassell led all scorers for the Spurs, pouring in 28 points, including seven 3-pointers. This victory marks the second time this season the Spurs have reached a win streak of eight or more games.

Here’s a appear at the longest win streaks across the NBA so far this season:


1. Oklahoma City Thunder (16 games)

Nov. 7, 2025 – Dec. 10, 2025

After suffering a 121-119 loss that ended an earlier eight-game win streak, the Thunder responded emphatically. They rattled off 16 consecutive wins, establishing themselves as a force in the Western Conference.

The Thunder improved to 24-1, putting themselves in the conversation for historical comparisons. The 16-game streak is the longest in OKC franchise history and tied with the 2015-16 Golden State Warriors for the best 25-game start in league history. During this stretch, the Thunder outscored opponents by a remarkable 437 points, the largest margin of victory through 25 games in NBA history.


2. Detroit Pistons (13 games)

Oct. 29, 2025 – Nov. 24, 2025

Following a playoff appearance as a No. 6 seed in the 2018-19 season, the Pistons continued their ascent, winning 13 straight games early in the 2025-26 campaign.

During their 137-135 overtime win over the Washington Wizards on Nov. 10, 2025, Cunningham etched his name in the record books. He became the first player to record 45+ points, 10+ rebounds, 10+ assists, and 5+ steals in a game since steals and blocks were officially tracked in 1976. He joined Isiah Thomas as the only Pistons to achieve a 45-point triple-double, finishing with 46 points, 12 rebounds, and 11 assists. The Pistons’ 13-game win streak matched the longest in franchise history, and they started the year with a 15-2 record, tying the 2005-06 season for the best start in franchise history.


T-3. Charlotte Hornets (9 games)

Jan. 22, 2026 – Feb. 7, 2026 

The Hornets dramatically turned their season around with a nine-game win streak, tying their second-longest franchise mark. This was their longest single-season win streak since the 1997-98 season.

During their 126-119 win over the Atlanta Hawks on Feb. 7, rookie sensation Kon Knueppel made history from beyond the arc. He totaled his 14th game this season with at least 5 3-point makes, surpassing Saddiq Bey for the most such games by a rookie in NBA history. The Hornets’ nine-game win streak was ultimately broken by the East-leading Pistons on Feb. 9.


T-3. Toronto Raptors (9 games)

Nov. 11, 2025 – Nov. 26, 2025 

The Raptors have emerged as a competitive team this season, boasting a pair of All-Stars in Brandon Ingram and Scottie Barnes.

In November, Toronto won nine games consecutively, marking the fifth time in franchise history they’ve achieved a streak of nine wins or more. The Raptors had their best start through 19 games since the 2019-20 season. In the 97-95 win over the Indiana Pacers on Nov. 26, 2025, Ingram sealed the victory with a clutch midrange jumper and became the second-fastest player in Raptors franchise history to reach 400 points, doing so in just 19 games.


T-3. San Antonio Spurs (9 games)

Feb. 1, 2026 – Feb. 23, 2026* (active) 

The Spurs began February with nine straight wins, showcasing their potential as a rising team in the Western Conference. It was the second time this season they’d reached a win streak of eight or more games. The Spurs also recorded 120+ points in six consecutive games for the first time in over 40 years.

In the Spurs’ 139-122 win over the Sacramento Kings on Feb. 21, Victor Wembanyama delivered a stellar performance with 28 points, 15 rebounds, and 4 blocks. During the Spurs’ win streak, Wembanyama tallied 224 points and 31 blocks.
