Portland at San Antonio

The Trail Blazers lost to the Spurs at home when San Antonio was without superstar Victor Wembanyama, and they lost to San Antonio again at home this past Sunday, when the Spurs did have Wembanyama. The result is that Portland is on the verge of elimination, down 3-1 in this first-round series. Look for the Spurs to close out Portland at home in Game 5. Wembanyama and San Antonio's excellent guard trio of De’Aaron Fox, Stephon Castle, and Dylan Harper are too much for the Trail Blazers. Wembanyama was dominant this past Sunday with 27 points, 11 rebounds, four steals, and seven blocks in his return from a concussion. The Trail Blazers are averaging only 95.5 points a game in the two games Wembanyama has started and finished. The Spurs are 13-0 when an opponent fails to crack the century mark. The scary thing is that San Antonio easily covered both Game 3 and Game 4 despite falling behind by at least 15 points in each game. Take the Spurs.
