The San Antonio Spurs eliminated the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder 111-103 in Game 7 of the 2026 Western Conference Finals. The road victory at the Paycom Center officially advances San Antonio to the NBA Finals.
The momentum of the series shifted entirely during Game 6, when Victor Wembanyama recorded 28 points, 10 rebounds, and three blocks to secure a 118-91 win and force a final game. Oklahoma City attempted a second-half lineup change to contain Wembanyama in Game 7, but their defensive adjustments failed to hold. The Thunder also played without Jalen Williams, who missed the elimination game due to a lingering injury.
San Antonio now prepares to face the New York Knicks for the championship. The upcoming series includes immediate roster concerns for New York, as center Mitchell Robinson fractured his right pinky finger prior to the finals, according to BasketNews coverage of the 111-103 finish and the Knicks’ injury status.
