The San Antonio Spurs defeated the Detroit Pistons 121–106 on March 5 at Frost Bank Center, with Victor Wembanyama and Devin Fox leading a dominant offensive performance. Wembanyama scored 38 points while Fox added 29, anchoring San Antonio's balanced attack that shot 50 percent from the field and made 13 three-pointers. Detroit's Cade Cunningham led the Pistons with 26 points and Isaiah Stewart contributed 18, but the visitors struggled to keep pace, connecting on just 40.2 percent of their attempts and committing 10 turnovers compared to San Antonio's eight. The Spurs' defense proved decisive, holding Detroit to 110.2 points per 100 possessions while generating 11 blocks and 5 steals. A strong second quarter—33 points—helped San Antonio build separation, and though the Pistons mounted a third-quarter rally with 30 points, the Spurs closed out the fourth decisively with 28 points to seal the 15-point win well below the 227.5 Vegas total. San Antonio's defensive intensity and three-point volume continue to define their winning formula as they solidify their playoff position.
