IN THE BUILDING | Spurs vs. Timberwolves Game 5 POST-GAME REACTION | 2026 NBA Playoffs Western Conference Semifinals Mike Taylor and Rudy Jay are back LIVE with your full post-game breakdown from Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals. The series is tied 2-2, Wembanyama is back, the Frost Bank Center crowd is unhinged, and everything is on the line tonight in San Antonio. We have got the full reaction, the biggest moments, and everything you need to know heading into a potential Game 6 in Minnesota. --- WHERE THIS SERIES STANDS This has been one of the most compelling playoff series in recent memory and Game 4 was the wildest chapter yet. Victor Wembanyama was ejected early in the second quarter after throwing an elbow that connected with Naz Reid's neck, drawing an automatic Flagrant 2 disqualification with roughly 32 minutes still left in the game. The crowd at Target Center went wild when he walked off — and what happened next was nothing short of remarkable. Dylan Harper and De'Aaron Fox each scored 24 points and Stephon Castle added 20 as the Spurs guards refused to fold, turning the rest of the night into a midrange clinic and actually building an eight-point lead in the fourth quarter without their franchise cornerstone. They nearly pulled it off without him. Anthony Edwards had other ideas. He finished with 36 points including 16 in the fourth quarter, hitting a 27-footer to spark a 12-3 run that flipped the game before Minnesota closed it out 114-109 to even the series at two games apiece. --- THE WEMBY SITUATION HEADING INTO TONIGHT The NBA determined not to add further punishment beyond the ejection itself, so Wembanyama was cleared to play in Game 5. Both De'Aaron Fox and Dylan Harper were listed as questionable heading into tonight — Fox with an ankle injury after being landed on by Ayo Dosunmu in Game 4, and Harper with left knee soreness — but both were officially available after making it through pregame warmups. The winner of this series faces the Oklahoma City Thunder, who swept the Los Angeles Lakers in four games and have been waiting on deck. The stakes could not be any higher. A trip to the Western Conference Finals is on the line tonight in San Antonio. --- THE BIG PICTURE This Spurs team was supposed to be building for the future. Instead they are one win away from the Conference Finals with their franchise player healthy and back in the lineup and the home crowd behind them. Wembanyama is averaging 18.3 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game in the series, while Edwards is averaging 25.8 points on the other side. Two of the most exciting players on the planet, a series tied at two, winner take the momentum. This is what the NBA playoffs are made for. --- SUBSCRIBE AND HIT THE BELL — We are going LIVE after EVERY San Antonio Spurs playoff game this postseason.
