DeβAaron Fox and Victor Wembanyama delivered in a statement closeout win as the Spurs defeated the Trail Blazers 114-95, winning the series 4-1 to advance to the Western Conference Semifinals. Fox took over late in the game, closing things out in the clutch with a steady all-around performance of 21 points and 9 assists, helping San Antonio pull away in the fourth. Wembanyama followed with a historic playoff performance in his first career clinching game, finishing with 17 points, 14 rebounds (playoff career high), and 6 blocks. At just 22 years, 114 days, Wemby becomes the youngest player since blocks were officially tracked (1973β74) to record 15+ points, 10+ rebounds, and 5+ blocks in a clinching playoff win, joining Hakeem Olajuwon as the only players age 22 or younger to ever hit those marks. He also continues his dominant defensive stretch, becoming just the third player in Spurs history to record 13+ blocks over a two-game playoff span, alongside Tim Duncan and David Robinson. Julian Champagnie added 19 points and 5 threes in the win. Never miss a moment with the latest news, trending stories and highlights to bring you closer to your favorite players and teams.
