San Antonio defeated Oklahoma City 122–115 on May 18 at Paycom Center in a playoff contest that saw the Spurs control the glass and execute more efficiently despite a strong offensive showing from the Thunder. Victor Wembanyama led San Antonio with 41 points, complemented by Devin Harper's 24 points, while Alex Caruso paced Oklahoma City with 31 points and J. Williams added 26. The Spurs shot 42.7 percent from the field and dominated the boards with 61 rebounds to Oklahoma City's 40, a decisive advantage that proved crucial in the four-point margin. San Antonio's 21 turnovers offset an otherwise solid performance, yet their defensive rating of 100.6 held the Thunder to 40.6 percent shooting and limited them to 17 three-pointers. Both teams matched each other with 25 assists, but the Spurs' rebounding edge and superior field-goal percentage proved the difference in a game that fell short of the 219.5-point Vegas total. The result strengthens San Antonio's playoff positioning heading into the next round.
