San Antonio’s Defensive Masterclass Stuns Minnesota in Blowout Game 2 Victory—Can They Keep the Momentum Alive?

San Antonio’s Defensive Masterclass Stuns Minnesota in Blowout Game 2 Victory—Can They Keep the Momentum Alive?

Wembanyama finished with 19 points and 15 rebounds, Stephon Castle had 21 points and De’Aaron Fox added 16 points, and none of them played more than 26 minutes thanks to the blowout.

Minnesota was led by four players with 12 points each: Anthony Edwards off the bench, plus Jaden McDaniels, Julius Randle and Terrence Shannon.

This game was decided in the first half — Minnesota scored a season-low 35 first-half points and did it on 29.8% shooting. San Antonio’s defenders were physical, and they were everywhere, also forcing 11 turnovers. It’s not like the Timberwolves just missed their 3-points — although they did that, too, going 2-of-15 from beyond the arc — but they also shot just 8-of-24 (33.3%) in the paint. Anthony Edwards, the spark of Game 1, was 1-of-6 in the first half.
