Live Updates: OKC Thunder vs. Spurs Game 7

The Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs are set to face off in a winner-take-all Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals tonight. The victor will move on to the Finals, facing off against the well-rested New York Knicks for all the marbles.

So far, the teams sit at three wins apiece, having come by vastly different results.

There will be no predicting tonight’s outcome, as the Spurs may be the more healthy of the two squads, but OKC’s experience and home-court advantage could play a major factor. The Thunder haven't lost back-to-back Playoffs games since May of 2024, though Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs are likely the toughest opponent OKC has faced in the new era.

Interestingly, OKC is using a starting lineup that is 0-1 this series.

Below, you can follow along for live updates throughout the game:

First Quarter: Spurs 32, Thunder 25

The Thunder got off to a un-ideal defensive start, allowing the Spurs to hit their first five field goals and grab a quick six-point lead. That exact game-flow would continue for a few more minutes, allowing the Spurs to get out to a 10-point lead before the first timeout of the game called by Mark Daigneault.

The middle of the first quarter followed a similar pattern, with Oklahoma City turning the ball over, and the Spurs moving it flawlessly. Yet another open Spurs' 3-pointer would give them a 14-point lead just seven minutes into the game, before a 5-0 Thunder run forced the team's first timeout.

The Thunder defense would stabilize somewhat, though the Thunder offense continued to play in mud without several of the top scoring options. The Spurs hung onto a seven-point lead heading into the second frame.

Jared McCain would bit into the lead late with a 3-pointer.

Second Quarter: Spurs 56, Thunder 53

The second quarter started more back-and-forth than the first, though a Wembanyama 3-pointer would force another Thunder timeout a few minutes in, Spurs up nine.

Defensively, Oklahoma City has found more of a rhyhtm, but is still allowing transition opportunities for San Antonio. Things are still slow-going offensively, highlighted by a transition miss from Alex Caruso — who is 1-for-6 in the game — as well as an 0-for-2 trip to the line by SGA. The difference sits at a manageable eight points with six minutes remaining in the half, though those possessions mean all the difference to OKC.

The home crowd would find its way into the game to end the second quarter, when the Thunder would cut the lead down to just two behind multiple buckets from Gilgeous-Alexander. In totaling 17 points, Gilgeous-Alexander would help OKC to trail just 46-44 with three minutes til the break.

The Thunder continue to grind back in with shot-making from SGA, though the Spurs would answer with a 7-0 run just before halftime to keep a 3-point lead into the break.
