The Oklahoma City Thunder are hoping to bounce back from a shocking loss in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals against the San Antonio Spurs.
The Spurs took Game 1, 122-115, in a double overtime victory where star Victor Wembanyama put up a staggering 41 points over 49 minutes of action — a career-high for the center.
The Thunder, whose nine-game postseason winning streak was snapped in the loss, struggled in the first half but clawed back from a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit to force the overtime periods.
