Victor Wembanyama continues to awe, delivering a masterful performance in what was his first Conference Finals game. The French phenom overwhelmed the paint against the Thunder and their MVP, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. With an astonishing 41 points and 24 rebounds, he achieved the best game of his career against the league’s top team.
Carried by Wembanyama’s brilliance, the Spurs secured the win after two overtimes. It was “The Alien” himself who forced the second overtime with his only three-pointer of the night, a shot made from at least two meters behind the 3-point line (108-108, 45th minute). This road victory gives San Antonio the home-court advantage, placing them just three wins away from reaching the NBA Finals.
