Thunder vs. Spurs Prediction, Spread, Preview for Game 6 – Thursday, May 28
One game after looking as bad on offense as they had all season, the Thunder rebounded to shoot 48% from the field, 44% from 3, and scored 127 points in Game 5 — the second most they have scored this postseason.
It was a total turnaround from Game 4, which saw Oklahoma City score 82 points — its fewest in four years — on 33% shooting, while missing 27-of-33 shots from deep. This time, they had 82 points early in the third quarter.
League MVP and postseason scoring leader Shai Gilgeous Alexander recorded his third 30-point game of the postseason, while Alex Caruso stayed hot with 22 points in 28 minutes off the bench.
Just as impressive was the Thunder defense, which held Spurs C Victor Wembanyama to just 4 made field goals. That’s his fewest in a full game since early March, not counting games he left early due to injury or ejection.
The Spurs have won and lost on the back of Wembanyama. In the two wins, Wemby has 74 points, 32 rebounds, and 8 assists. In the three losses, his numbers are 67 points, 27 rebounds, and 10 assists. Their success hinges on their Defensive Player of the Year — which will be key in San Antonio tonight.
