Summary
The Oklahoma City Thunder are one win away from the NBA Finals after a dominant Game 5 victory over the San Antonio Spurs, fueled by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s 32-point explosion and a team-wide effort that saw five players score in double figures. The Spurs, who tied the series just two days prior, couldn’t replicate their earlier magic, struggling with turnovers and a subdued Victor Wembanyama (20 points). Oklahoma City’s massive 40-point second quarter turned the tide, and Gilgeous-Alexander credited his teammates for stepping up when he struggled. With home-court advantage and momentum, the Thunder head to San Antonio for Game 6 with a chance to close it out. Spurs coach Mitch Johnson admitted his team’s lack of execution and called for more aggression from Wembanyama to keep their championship hopes alive — but the odds are steep against a confident, deep Thunder squad.
