The San Antonio Spurs dominated the Minnesota Timberwolves 133–95 on May 6 at Frost Bank Center, delivering a decisive playoff performance that fell well short of the Vegas total of 217.5 points. Spurs guards Shai Gilgeous Castle and Victor Wembanyama led the charge with 21 and 19 points respectively, anchoring a balanced offensive attack that shot 50 percent from the field and made 16 three-pointers. San Antonio's defense suffocated Minnesota throughout, holding the Timberwolves to 39.8 percent shooting while forcing 22 turnovers and recording 13 steals. The Spurs' third quarter proved decisive, outscoring the visitors 39–28 to effectively put the contest out of reach. Minnesota's J. McDaniels and Julius Randle each contributed 12 points in a struggling effort that saw the team manage just nine three-pointers and 19 assists. San Antonio's offensive rating of 124.9 paired with a stifling 85.1 defensive rating demonstrated comprehensive dominance, while Minnesota's 22 turnovers and 43 rebounds underscored their inability to maintain possession or control the glass. The Spurs' convincing victory strengthens their playoff positioning and suggests they have found their rhythm at precisely the right moment.
