The San Antonio Spurs defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 126-97 on Tuesday night in Game 5. With this victory, the Spurs have taken a 3-2 lead in the series, moving them one win away from the Western Conference finals.
Victor Wembanyama led the effort with a huge performance, recording 27 points, 17 rebounds, and three blocks.
The French star returned to the lineup after escaping a suspension for his first career ejection in Game 4 on Sunday. Wembanyama atoned for the previous incident by propelling San Antonio to the dominant win.
