The San Antonio Spurs carry major momentum into Game 6 after dominating Minnesota in Game 5 behind another elite performance from Victor Wembanyama. The Minnesota Timberwolves continue to rely heavily on Anthony Edwards, but San Antonio’s defense and depth have controlled the series. Even on the road, the Spurs look like the more complete and confident team and will close out the series either game 6 if not game 7.
