All eyes are on San Antonio tonight.
At 8 p.m. ET, Jayson Tatum’s surging Boston Celtics swoop into the Frost Bank Center to take on Victor Wembanyama’s red-hot Spurs in what just might be an NBA Finals preview.
This contest will be the 28-year-old Tatum’s third this season after sitting the first 62 games due to a torn achilles he suffered in Game Four of the 2025 Eastern Conference semifinals. Since his return, Boston routed the lowly Mavericks and competitive Cavaliers.
While the Celtics certainly have momentum, so do the streaky Spurs. The 47-17 club have won their last four and 15 of their past 16 as the 22-year-old Wemby becomes a more competent ballplayer.
“I could go four minutes straight without touching the ball and find enough to find ways to impact the game and make my teammates better,” Wembanyama said after the team’s most recent victory.
