Things are all tied up in San Antonio going into Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals.

The Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the San Antonio Spurs 122–113 in Game 2 even the series up 1-all. Newly crowned league MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander shook off a quiet Game 1 to contribute 30 points and 9 assists, while veteran Alex Caruso provided a huge 17 points off the bench.

Despite the victory, injuries quickly became the defining story of the game for both sides; the Thunder lost star forward Jalen Williams early to a recurring hamstring injury, and the already short-handed Spurs lost guard Dylan Harper to a leg injury in the second half. Both players are listed as game time descisions tonight.

The next game in the Western Conference Finals is scheduled for Sunday night in San Antonio.
