Reese, Pam and Alex discuss Victor Wembanyama’s amazing 41-point, 24-rebound double-overtime peformance, OKC's Game 1 loss and more.

The San Antonio Spurs lead the Western Conference Finals 1-0 after a thrilling 122-115 Game 1 road victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder in double OT. Victor Wembanyama spearheaded the win with a historic 41 points, 24 rebounds and 3 blocks, alongside rookie Dylan Harper’s 24 points, 11 rebounds, and 7 steals. The Thunder countered with 31 points from Alex Caruso and a double-double from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, but failed to match the Spurs' late-game execution. The defending-champion Thunder entered the series fully rested after dominant sweeps of the Suns and Lakers. Conversely, the Spurs arrived on just three days' rest following a grueling six-game series against the Timberwolves. However, San Antonio held an advantage, having won four of their five regular-season meetings against Oklahoma City. By stealing Game 1, the Spurs have stripped Oklahoma City of home-court advantage. Wembanyama’s dominant performance handed OKC their first loss of the postseason and now the Thunder face pressure, turning Game 2 into a must-win to avoid a dangerous 0-2 deficit before heading to San Antonio. How special is Wembanayama?
