Help: Can't restore from backup??

[Jedi5]

Hope someone can help me out here.
Have a 13Pro Max that I couldn't update to the latest iOS. Not matter what I tried, the iPhone would not update at all.

Backed up the phone to my MBP and then proceeded to wipe the 13 clean.
I am now trying to restore from the back up but I keep getting the "not enough free space" on the iPhone.

If I wiped the iPhone clean to factory settings, how is there not enough free space?

Is there anything I can to fix this?

Thanks

settings - general - erase all content and settings

Try updating after Erase All Content and Settings w/out logging into iCloud and before restoring from backup.
