Wembanyama leads the league in games with 5 or more blocks at 11, followed by Turner (5) and Jackson Jr. (4)

Leaders in 5+ block games in a season since 1990:
-
Olajuwon 37 games (1989-90)
-
Mutombo x2 (1995-96, 1994-95) Olajuwon (1991-1992) 33 games
I also want to add a ridiculous stat that I found while doing this. Mark Eaton had 48(!) games with 5+ blocks in 1984-85, he ended up averaging 5.6 blocks that season.
Which remains the record to this day and looks like it’ll be there for a while considering the closest to come to it is Mutombo in 1995-96 at only 4.5 BPG.
