The league coronation of Victor Wembanyama continues to take shape. Except now the San Antonio Spurs star ended the team’s 12-year NBA Finals appearance drought in epic fashion Saturday. Wemby dropped tears and 22 points in beating the Oklahoma City Thunder, then sent a tough message to the New York Knicks. An emotional second-year pro became overwhelmed with emotions in heading to his first title appearance. But fired off these words that fired up Spurs fans, plus became overheard by the next opponent for the
Spurs. “WE WANT FOUR MORE. WE ARE NOT DONE,” Wemby said loud and clear postgame. “WE WANT FOUR MORE.

Wemby and company silenced “Loud City” early, though. The visitors forced OKC to take an early timeout after leaping to an 18-8 lead. Wembanyama shook up the rim and Chet Holmgren to
put Thunder fans into discomfort early.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander hit a brand-new series best mark during the first half. He carried the scoring load for the home team in dropping 35 points through 43 minutes. But San Antonio responded in hitting OKC with its own haymakers. And not just limited to Wemby going off on the defending champions. Julian Champagnie went off
scoring wise, delivering 20 points in 37 minutes. Stephon Castle scored 16 points in 36 minutes of action. De’Aaron Fox produced 15 points with 36 minutes handed to him. Rookie Dylan Harper provided 12 points while Keldon Johnson plus Devin Vassell produced 11 points apiece. Wemby and the young Spurs now can capture a sixth NBA title. Now he can join franchise legends David Robinson and Tim Duncan in winning the Larry O’Brien Trophy.
