Spurs: The San Antonio Spurs defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 126 to 97 as V. Wembanyama (27pts,17rebs,5ast,3blks) was sensational in his return to action as the Spurs are only one win away from reaching the conference finals. He started the game carrying the Spurs by scoring 18 in the first quarter! D. Fox (18pts,4rebs,5ast) helped keep the Spurs steady as well in the first half and was attacking and setting the tone early. He made it a point to involve Victor early and often which in turn got him some easy buckets. S. Castle (17pts,4rebs,6ast) and D. Harper (12pts,10rebs) each had moments where they put the team on their back and never backed down from the physical play the Wolves displayed! K. Johnson (21pts) was a problem for the Wolves off the bench, and kept the crowd in the game everytime Minnesota made a run! There were plenty of Spurs legends in the building as well, El Jefe, D. Rob, Duncan, Manu, Elliot, and Daniels were present for the game. All are former champions and frequent the games! The Crowd was electric and the Spurs needed it as Minnesota kept coming and would answer back everytime San Antonio went up by double digits. In the end it was not enough because when the Alien 👽 is in the paint, it might as well be outer space for the Wolves!

Wolves: A. Edwards (20pts,9rebs,4ast) was trying his best to get Minnesota the win. He gave great effort and was playing through double teams trying to keep the Wolves afloat. A. Dosunmu (17pts) played well and even went at Wemby multiple times. J. McDaniels (17pts) and J. Randle (17pts,10rebs) seemed exhausted after the game and frustrated, as both play a physical brand of basketball that can take the opponent out of their game, but it can also wear down and exhaust both players. N. Reid (12pts,5rebs) was doing his best to protect the paint, but with R. Gobert (4pts,5rebs,1blk) only being effective against lineups that consist of L. Kornet, one has to wonder how he can keep himself from being a liability on offense. Game 6 will be a must win for Minnesota so expect them to play their hearts out!
