Luke Kornet

SAS Center-Forward #7

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Luke Kornet (foot) is questionable for Monday’s Game 1 against the Thunder.

Kornet is dealing with a sore left foot, and a potential absence would affect the back end of the Spurs’ rotation. He averaged 13.8 minutes per game in the second round, which included a spike in playing time in Game 4 due to Victor Wembanyama’s second-quarter ejection. If Kornet can’t play on Monday, more minutes would become available to Carter Bryant.
De'Aaron Fox

SAS Guard #4

De’Aaron Fox (ankle) is questionable for Monday’s Game 1 against the Thunder.

Fox continues to deal with a sore right ankle, but the injury did not force him to miss any games during San Antonio’s second-round series against Minnesota. If he’s unable to play on Monday, Dylan Harper would take on a more prominent role, with there also being more minutes for Harrison Barnes.
Julian Champagnie

SAS Forward #30

Julian Champagnie amassed 18 points (5-of-10 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), five rebounds, two assists, two steals and four three-pointers in Friday’s Game 6 win over the Timberwolves.

After shooting a combined 4-of-19 from beyond the arc in Games 3 through 5, Champagnie found his shot in Friday’s series clincher. The Spurs’ wing knocked down four of nine attempts in the 139-109 victory and finished a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. Given the test that awaits in the conference finals, the Spurs will need a consistent Champagnie if they’re to knock off the Thunder. Game 1 is on Monday in Oklahoma City.
Victor Wembanyama

SAS Forward-Center #1

Victor Wembanyama accounted for 19 points (6-of-11 FGs, 7-of-9 FTs), six rebounds, two assists and three blocks in Friday’s Game 6 win over the Timberwolves.

While he didn’t finish with a robust stat line, Wembanyama thoroughly dominated countryman Rudy Gobert in the Game 6 blowout. The Timberwolves’ center failed to score and grabbed three rebounds, while Wemby and the Spurs did most of what they wanted. He’ll face a tougher test in the next round, as Oklahoma City’s deep frontcourt awaits in the conference finals. Game 1 is on Monday night.
De'Aaron Fox

SAS Guard #4

De’Aaron Fox tallied 21 points (8-of-10 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, nine assists, two blocks and three three-pointers in Friday’s Game 6 win over the Timberwolves.

Fox picked a good time to have his best game of the series, finishing one assist shy of a double-double while shooting 80 percent from the field. In the 139-109 victory, the Spurs shot nearly 56 percent from the field while limiting the Timberwolves to 37.7 percent shooting. The task gets more difficult for the Spurs in the next round, as they’ll face Oklahoma City in the Western Conference Finals. Game 1 is on Monday night.
Stephon Castle

SAS Guard #5

Stephon Castle finished Friday’s Game 6 against the Timberwolves with 32 points (11-of-16 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), 11 rebounds, six assists and five three-pointers.

The Spurs came out focused from the start of Game 6, and it was Castle who led the way. The second-year guard scored 14 points in the first quarter and did not cool off until he and the other starters were shut down early in the fourth quarter. Castle finished four assists shy of his first postseason triple-double and shot high percentages from the field and the foul line. Next up for San Antonio are the reigning champion Thunder in the Western Conference Finals, with Game 1 scheduled for Monday night.
Keldon Johnson

SAS Forward-Guard #3

Keldon Johnson accounted for 21 points (8-of-11 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), two rebounds, two steals, one block and one three-pointer in Tuesday’s Game 5 win over the Timberwolves.

Having averaged 8.8 points per game in the first four games of the series, Johnson stepped up in a big way in Game 5. Aggressive from the start, the Spurs forward finished with a playoff career-high 21 points. Johnson wasn’t the only Spurs reserve to step up on Tuesday, as rookie Dylan Harper added a double-double with 12 points (5-of-10 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), 10 rebounds, two assists, one steal and one blocked shot. A win in Game 6 on Friday would send the Spurs to the conference finals for the first time since 2017.
Stephon Castle

SAS Guard #5

Stephon Castle amassed 17 points (8-of-11 FGs, 1-of-3 FTs), four rebounds, six assists, two steals and one blocked shot in Tuesday’s Game 5 win over the Timberwolves.

The lone negative for Castle in Game 5 was that he committed four turnovers, but the second-year guard still managed six assists in the 126-97 victory. He’s scored at least 17 points in seven of San Antonio’s ten games this postseason, providing consistent production to supplement Victor Wembanyama and De’Aaron Fox. Castle and the Spurs will look to earn their first Western Conference Finals appearance since 2017 with a win on Friday.
De'Aaron Fox

SAS Guard #4

De’Aaron Fox recorded 18 points (6-of-15 FGs, 5-of-5 FTs), four rebounds, five assists and one three-pointer in Tuesday’s Game 5 win over the Timberwolves.

After shooting a combined 15-of-42 from the field in Games 3 and 4, Fox was slightly more efficient in Game 5. While the shooting wasn’t great, the good news for the Spurs was that their point guard committed just one turnover. Fox was one of many Spurs to step up and assist Victor Wembanyama, with six players finishing in double figures. The Spurs will look to close out the series with a win in Game 6 on Friday.
Victor Wembanyama

SAS Forward-Center #1

Victor Wembanyama tallied 27 points (9-of-16 FGs, 7-of-9 FTs), 17 rebounds, five assists, three blocks and two three-pointers in Tuesday’s Game 5 win over the Timberwolves.

In the words of Carmelo Anthony, Wembanyama’s first six minutes of Game 5 were almost a “public apology” to the team after his second-quarter ejection in Game 4. The 7-foot-4 phenom was dominant in his first stint, putting up 16 points and five rebounds before heading to the bench. Wembanyama finished with his fourth double-double of the series and sixth of the postseason. He’s also the third-youngest player to record at least 25 points, 15 rebounds and five assists in a playoff game, trailing Magic Johnson and Luka Dončić. Tuesday’s result puts the Spurs one win away from their first conference finals appearance since 2017, and Game 6 is on Friday.
