Our Reading
The game followed a familiar script.
The Spurs dominated from start to finish, with Wembanyama leading the charge. The Thunder’s three-point shooting woes returned, and they couldn’t capitalize on their 40 attempts from beyond the arc.
San Antonio’s bench was crucial, with Dylan Harper providing 18 points and six rebounds in 22 minutes. The Spurs’ starting five also contributed, with Stephon Castle scoring 17 points and Devin Vassell hitting four three-pointers.
