Shai Gilgeous-Alexander excited for OKC's 'retest' against Spurs after NBA Cup loss
As Chet Holmgren set a screen, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander found himself up against Victor Wembanyama. Going with his usually reliable stepback 3-pointer, his attempt clanked at the front of the rim. The seven-footer contested his jumper just enough to get the miss.
Wembanyama last played during an NBA Cup Group C game against the Golden State Warriors on November 14. An MRI later confirmed a left calf strain, announced by the Spurs on November 17. San Antonio stayed careful, following league-wide trends around calf injuries.
