Thunder Spurs Game 2 Record

Friday’s contest became the most-watched Western Conference Finals Game 2 ever, giving the matchup a viewership mark to go with the split in the series. The game delivered a total audience delivery of 10.1 million viewers, a sharp jump from Game 1’s 9.2 million viewers.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Oklahoma City needed more than a clean finish to get there. San Antonio was within five points with just over one minute left in the fourth quarter, but the Thunder closed with a quick 4-0 run to keep control of the final minute and finish at 122-113.

Gilgeous-Alexander Wembanyama Battle

The matchup carried real weight before the opening tip. Oklahoma City finished the regular season at 64-18, San Antonio at 62-20, and the series is the first clash between two teams that won at least 62 regular-season games since the 1998 NBA Finals.

That depth of success gave Game 2 a cleaner frame than a routine conference finals game. Gilgeous-Alexander arrived with his second straight MVP honor this year, while Victor Wembanyama brought unanimous Defensive Player of the Year recognition at 22 years old, making the series one of the league’s most decorated recent head-to-heads.
