The San Antonio Spurs are off to a strong start this season, despite significant injuries to key players like Victor Wembanyama.

Wembanyama is gradually expected to ramp up to his season average of just under 34 minutes per game. Even if the All-Star big man is unlikely to reach that figure against the Knicks, the 20-plus minutes he is expected to play should be highly impactful.

The San Antonio Spurs defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder 111-109 in Saturday's thrilling NBA Cup semifinals, but their star player still believes the team is in catch-up mode when it comes to the reigning champions.

Meanwhile, Victor Wembanyama returned from a 12-game absence dealing with a calf strain. He made it back in time for the NBA Cup semifinals. It was a good experience for the Spurs as they will likely punch their ticket to the playoffs for the first time with their young group this year.

Before the NBA Cup finals, Victor Wembanyama offers a frank assessment of the San Antonio Spurs, saying that they cannot be called OKC’s rivals just yet.

Manchester United came from three goals down at home to earn a draw against Tottenham as the final Women's Super League match of 2025 produced a blockbuster.

The successor to Gregg Popovich is his own man, and his fingerprints were all over the upset win over the league-best Thunder in the NBA Cup semifinals.

The Spurs are in the middle of a fantastic stretch. They have not only won 10 of their last 13 games, but also gotten Stephon Castle and Victor Wembanyama back, and defeated the Thunder to reach the Emirates NBA Cup championship game against the Knicks.
