The San Antonio Spurs dominated Oklahoma City 118–91 on May 28 at Frost Bank Center, holding the Thunder well below the Vegas total of 218.5 in a decisive playoff performance. Victor Wembanyama led the Spurs with 28 points while Derrick Harper added 18, anchoring an offense that shot 46.6 percent from the field and drilled 15 three-pointers. San Antonio's defense was suffocating, particularly in the third quarter where they outscored OKC 32–13 to seize control; the Thunder managed just 9.6 points per quarter in that stretch. Oklahoma City's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was held to 15 points on poor efficiency as the Thunder shot only 37.2 percent and made just 10 threes. The Spurs' 52 rebounds and 30 assists showcased balanced ball movement, while their defensive rating of 91.7 compared favorably to OKC's 118.0. With this convincing road victory, San Antonio demonstrated the defensive intensity required to advance deeper into the postseason.
