Among rookies and sophomores, only Magic Johnson (10) and Larry Bird (9) had more in a postseason run.<\/p>\n Dylan Harper (18 pts in 22:04) was also crucial for the Spurs in the win.<\/p>\n 10:46 PM \/ MAY 28<\/p>\n Party time in San Antonio<\/p>\n 110-82 with 5:39 to go.<\/p>\n Both coaches have pulled the regulars \u2014 we\u2019ve got Jared McCain, Isaiah Joe, Aaron Wiggins, Nikola Topi\u0107 and Kenrich Williams for the Thunder and Jordan McLaughlin, Lindy Waters III, Carter Bryant, Kelly Olynyk and Bismack Biyombo for the Spurs.<\/p>\n It\u2019s been an epic series.

The Thunder had just 13 points in the period.<\/p>\n Chet Holmgren (10 pts, 11 reb, 2 blk) had their only bucket of the last 8:23.<\/p>\n He also rejected Victor Wembanyama with seven seconds to go, but Wemby immediately got him back on the other end. It\u2019s fun to watch these two go at it.<\/p>\n The crowd\u2019s roaring in the Frost Bank Center. We\u2019ve got a likely Game 7 in the offing.<\/p>\n Tune in and enjoy the excitement in San Antonio!

He\u2019s been a spark for San Antonio all night \u2014 when his 3-pointer is on target, he\u2019s as tough to stop as any guard in the league.<\/p>\n 9:58 PM \/ MAY 28<\/p>\n Spurs come out firing<\/p>\n Devin Vassell (12 pts) and Julian Champagnie (8 pts) have hit 3-pointers in the opening minutes of the third quarter, as the Spurs extend their lead.<\/p>\n They\u2019re now 13-of-29 (44.8%) from deep tonight.<\/p>\n 70-60 Spurs with 9:35 to go in the third quarter.<\/p>\n 9:38 PM \/ MAY 28<\/p>\n Spurs up 60-53 at the half<\/p>\n Oklahoma City pulled within five as the half neared a conclusion, but Victor Wembanyama (22 pts, 6 reb, 4 3PM) tipped in a De\u2019Aaron Fox miss to give the Spurs a boost going into the break.<\/p>\n The Thunder keep rallying despite the Spurs\u2019 hot shooting \u2014 50% from the field, 44% from 3-point range \u2014 and the raucous crowd. Cason Wallace (11 pts on 4-of-4 shooting) is their top scorer.<\/p>\n The Spurs will enter the second half with a chance to extend their season. The Thunder can go to the NBA Finals for the second-straight year. The stage is set.<\/p>\n \u201cNo matter what, just double down on being us,\u201d said Dylan Harper (12 pts on 5-of-6 shooting) of San Antonio\u2019s approach.<\/p>\n 9:29 PM \/ MAY 28<\/p>\n Competitive fire on display<\/p>\n The energy is turning up in the Frost Bank Center.<\/p>\n Carter Bryant just swooped down the lane for a slam, followed by Devin Vassell rejecting Chet Holmgren and letting him know about it.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s still going,\u201d Reggie Miller said of Vassell\u2019s trash talk. \u201cAnd I love it.\u201d<\/p>\n 55-46 Spurs with 2:15 to go in the half.<\/p>\n 9:19 PM \/ MAY 28<\/p>\n Thunder pushing back<\/p>\n Oklahoma City went on a 16-7 run to begin the quarter, cutting the Spurs\u2019 lead to six, including two 3-pointers from Cason Wallace (8 pts).<\/p>\n But the Spurs countered, as Devin Vassell hit a 3-pointer, Dylan Harper (12 pts) slashed to the rim and Victor Wembanyama returned to the floor with a quick bucket.<\/p>\n 51-41 with 5:29 to go in the half.<\/p>\n 9:13 PM \/ MAY 28<\/p>\n Dylan Harper has it going<\/p>\n Eight points in 8:44 for the rookie out of Rutgers \u2014 that\u2019s the most he\u2019s scored in any game since Game 2.<\/p>\n 42-31 Spurs with 8:47 to go in the half.<\/p>\n 9:04 PM \/ MAY 28<\/p>\n Spurs lead 35-22 after one<\/p>\n San Antonio hit eight 3-pointers in the first quarter \u2014 the most they\u2019ve hit in a quarter in the play-by-play era (since 1997-98), including three from Victor Wembanyama (11 pts).<\/p>\n It\u2019s a brilliant start for the Spurs. Keep an eye on De\u2019Aaron Fox, though. The veteran point guard missed a point-blank bank shot and airmailed a corner 3-pointer during the quarter. He\u2019s still searching for his form while recovering from a right high ankle sprain.<\/p>\n Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (6 pts on 3-of-7 shooting) and Isaiah Hartenstein (6 pts, 3 reb, 2 ast) lead the Thunder in scoring.<\/p>\n 8:59 PM \/ MAY 28<\/p>\n Spurs locked in early<\/p>\n Devin Vassell, Keldon Johnson and Dylan Harper just knocked down 3-pointers in quick succession for the Spurs. They\u2019re looking for a hot shooting night at home \u2014 the crowd\u2019s lifting them so far.<\/p>\n San Antonio is 7-of-12 (58.3%) from 3-point range so far, while Oklahoma City is 1-of-5 (20%).<\/p>\n 28-20 Spurs with 2:00 to go in the quarter.<\/p>\n 8:46 PM \/ MAY 28<\/p>\n Wembanyama in isolation<\/p>\n After calling off his teammates, Wembanyama isolated at the top of the arc against Isaiah Hartenstein, shaking him with a crossover dribble then hitting a turnaround jumper.<\/p>\n When he does the 7\u20194\u2033 wing thing, it can be breathtaking.<\/p>\n 14-9 Spurs with 7:02 to go in the first.<\/p>\n 8:38 PM \/ MAY 28<\/p>\n Wemby starts off strong<\/p>\n Victor Wembanyama (6 pts, 1 blk) has nailed his first two 3-pointers. He lined them up like he wanted them.<\/p>\n WHAT A START FOR WEMBY IN GAME 6 \ud83d\udd25<\/p>\n Three-pointer.

With De\u2019Aaron Fox and Dylan Harper recovering from injuries, he\u2019s had more opportunities to attack in the lane. We\u2019ll see if Carter Bryant, who\u2019s been an irritant for SGA, earns additional time tonight.<\/p>\n SG Luguentz Dort<\/p>\n Dort\u2019s -45 in this series \u2014 by far the lowest on the team \u2014 which opens minutes for Alex Caruso, who\u2019s been stellar, and a team-high +42.\u00a0<\/p>\n SF Jalen Williams<\/p>\n If J-Dub plays, look for the Spurs to test him off the bounce. He\u2019ll need to get his legs under him quickly as the Thunder seek to play on into June.<\/p>\n PF Chet Holmgren<\/p>\n Holmgren dunked on Victor Wembanyama 1.5 times in Game 5 (one was ruled to have occurred after the shot clock expired). That\u2019s a win for the Minnesota native, who dropped 16 points and 11 rebounds as he continued his battles with Wemby.<\/p>\n C Isaiah Hartenstein<\/p>\n Can the Spurs pull Hartenstein away from the rim? Wemby was 0-for-5 from 3-point range in Game 5, letting the Thunder center drop deeper into the paint. It\u2019d be surprising, but I could see Kelly Olynyk getting a nod over Luke Kornet tonight to see if they can stretch him out.<\/p>\n San Antonio:<\/p>\n PG De\u2019Aaron Fox<\/p>\n Fox hasn\u2019t had a particularly good game in this series so far as he recovers from an ankle injury. With their season on the line, the Spurs could use some heroics from their closer.<\/p>\n SG Stephon Castle<\/p>\n Castle looked frustrated by the end of Game 5. He\u2019s been a warrior in this series, but has to resist the temptation to try to do too much defensively. His intensity reminds me of Rajon Rondo or Marcus Smart \u2014 he\u2019s always competing, but it can be overwhelming at times.<\/p>\n SF Devin Vassell<\/p>\n Vassell\u2019s largely been defended by SGA in his series, who\u2019s held him to 12 points on 4-of-12 shooting over 103.1 partial possessions. A hot shooting night could change that.<\/p>\n PF Julian Champagnie<\/p>\n Champagnie came out firing in Game 5, scoring 17 first-quarter points, but only had five after that. Every 3-pointer the Spurs hit is precious, especially when Carter Bryant and Luke Kornet get minutes off the bench.<\/p>\n C Victor Wembanyama<\/p>\n It\u2019s the biggest game of The Alien\u2019s career so far. He looked human in Game 5 \u2014 the Thunder may be wearing him down. Game 1 was a masterpiece, though. Does he have the legs for another such effort?<\/p>\n 6:05 PM \/ MAY 28<\/p>\n Shai\u2019s a star<\/p>\n The two-time Kia MVP has a chance to join Michael Jordan (4x) and LeBron James as the only players to win that honor and Finals MVP in the same season on two occasions.<\/p>\n That is, if the Thunder can defeat the Spurs and advance.<\/p>\n SGA in the building \ud83d\udd25<\/p>\n With a win tonight, Oklahoma City can become the 1st team to reach back-to-back NBA Finals since Golden State in 2019!<\/p>\n \ud83d\udcfa OKC\/SAS Game 6, 8:30pm\/et, NBC\/Peacock \u2014 NBA (@NBA) May 28, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n 5:15 PM \/ MAY 28<\/p>\n Thursday\u2019s injury report<\/p>\n Ajay Mitchell is out with a right calf strain for the Thunder, while Jalen Williams is questionable with a left hamstring strain.
