Winner Winner WeMVP. Victor Wembanyama sinks the game winner against the Suns- once again proving that Lazarus wears a Spus jersey.

A ray of hope shines into the darkness as Victor Wembanyama checks in and quickly hits a three to cut the Suns lead as time is starting to run out against a team who could very well be a first-round playoff opponent.

Spurs are down by 10 in the 4th trying to clinch a playoff birth but it's not looking good. Too many rushed shots, not enough rebounds and they can seem to catch any breaks every time Collin Gillespie puts up a shot.

Devin Vassell is not happy with this call and even more disappointed that the coaching staff decided not to challenge his “foul” against Devin Booker.

If you want to know why the Spurs are down at the half, the first thing to consider is that the Suns are on fire, shooting 54.3% from the field and a lethal 50% (8/16) from deep. The Spurs are struggling at 43.2% overall and just 31.3% from three. Wemby has 16 points, 4 rebounds, and 1 assist at the break. He's also shooting an efficient 71.4% (5/7), but the rest of the team hasn't found their rhythm at all. In fact, more than a handful of Spurs layups and shots have rolled out after looking like sure things. Simply put, Phoenix is winning the physical battle and they're leading 24–15 in total rebounds. The Spurs have held Devin Booker to just 6 points so far but Collin Gillespie has stepped up as the surprise leader for Phoenix with 17 points.

Spurs D showing up and they’ve started to chip away at the Suns lead.

Phoenix has clamped down defensively and the Suns on a 10-2 run so Mitch Johnson calls a timeout.

This Spurs team knows how to run, gun, and share that basketball. #Spurs #Suns

Did this Victor Wembanyama kid ever make it to the NBA? This tweet was hyping him way back in 2020. 😉

@morriss860 😂

@SpursReporter Luckily aliens don’t have ankles they have leg sockets for their bottom claw attachments.

Here’s video of that moment when everyone held their breath thinking Wemby rolled his ankle badly. 👀

Was this the injury that caused Cade’s lung to partially collapse?

Prayers up for Cade 🙏🏼. This is a terrifying condition where air leaks into the space between the lung and the chest wall, creating so much pressure that it causes the lung to collapse. He may be out for weeks and dotors will also likely forbid air travel for at least 3 weeks AFTER his lung is healed since cabin pressure changes could prove to be fatal.

@wyattroks Yeah, he's ok and set to play against the Suns tonight.

@SpursReporter he’s insanely flexible if he’s fine after that
