Facing the top eight Kings in the West, I didn't expect that the Spurs would force the opponent to a decisive victory at the last moment. However, in the end, they were 122-127, but they still fell short. Wembanyama almost rewrote history, he played 31 minutes in the game, got 19 points, 13 rebounds, 5 steals, 5 blocks and 4 assists, and 1 assist was enough to complete the 5x5 miracle.
The Spurs led 32-30 in the first quarter, but the Kings scored 10 points in the second quarter to complete the comeback. At halftime, the Spurs trailed the Kings 57-65. Wembanyama didn't have a good hand in the first half, he played 14 minutes and 36 seconds, 4-of-11 shooting, 0-of-1 three-pointer, no free throws, 8 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 2 blocks.
It was expected that the Spurs would collapse in the second half, but, in the fourth quarter, they fought back wildly. With 2 minutes and 53 seconds left in the quarter, Wen was dissatisfied with the basket and hit a difficult jump shot and made a foul, completing 2 plus 1, and the Spurs 117-116 to complete the overtake. You know, they were 11 points behind at one point.
Vassell then hit a three-pointer and the Spurs saw hope of a comeback. Monk hit a jumper, Fox also had a three-pointer, and the Kings regained a one-point lead. Murray countered with a slam dunk, and the Kings went on a 7-0 run to stop the Spurs.
Coming back from a timeout, Fox hit another jumper with 14 remainingIn 2 seconds, Monk made two fouls and two free throws, and the Spurs finally fell short, and Wembanyama left the court with a blue face.
