Champagnie scored double digits for the third time in the past four games, albeit only just. In fact, two of those performance have yielded just 10 and 11 points respectively. Over his past six appearances, Champagnie has averaged 10.5 points, 1.5 steals and 2.0 three-pointers in 33.3 minutes per contest. Now behind 2-1 in the series, San Antonio will be looking to get things back on track when the two teams meet again Sunday.

Johnson has been mostly underwhelming throughout the playoffs, having scored more than 11 points only twice in 14 appearances. After averaging 12.5 points per game across the regular season, things have gone south for Johnson, averaging just 8.8 points per game over his past 12 appearances. The Spurs now trail the series 2-1, with Game 4 slated for Sunday in San Antonio.

Caruso continues to play his best basketball of the season, scoring at least 15 points for the third straight game while also chipping in three combined steals and blocks. For whatever reason, Caruso has been able to take advantage of the matchup against San Antonio, averaging 21.0 points, 4.7 three-pointers and 2.7 combined steals and blocks through the first three games of the series.

Williams had easily his best game of the postseason, scoring 18 points including five triples. While the starters struggled for Oklahoma City, the bench caught fire, combining for 68 total points. While this was an encouraging performance for Williams, he had gone scoreless in two of his previous three outings. The Thunder now lead the series 2-1, with game 4 scheduled for Sunday in San Antonio.

McCain was fantastic in the win, scoring at least 20 points for the first time in the postseason. His role continues to grow, having logged at least 26 minutes in two straight games, providing the Thunder with an additional scoring threat off the bench. Over his past three appearacnes, McCain has averaged 14.3 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.0 three-pointers.

Wembanyama combined for 41 boards in Games 1 and 2, but he cooled off significantly on the glass Friday while accumulating only four rebounds. With the Thunder now up 2-1 in the Western Conference Finals, both teams will meet for Game 4 on Sunday. Wembanyama did thrive as a scorer, and he'll likely need to turn in a similar caliber of performance on the offensive end in Game 4 on Sunday for the Spurs to have a chance to tie up the series at 2-2.

Fox missed the first two games of the series because of a high-ankle sprain. While the 28-year-old was able to play Friday, he had a tough time getting things going offensively and finished with one of his lowest-scoring performances of the postseason. With the Thunder taking a 2-1 lead in the Western Conference Finals after the win, these teams will meet for a crucial Game 4 on Sunday. Considering Fox briefly exited Game 3 after aggravating the ankle issue, it wouldn't be surprising to see him pop up on the injury report. If he can't suit up, Dylan Harper would be the favorite to rejoin the starting lineup after starting Games 1 and 2.

Gilgeous-Alexander didn't deliver his best shooting performance from inside the arc, though he frequently got to the charity stripe and finished with a game-high-tying 26 points. The two-time MVP also got his teammates involved, dishing out a game-high 12 assists en route to his second double-double of the 2026 playoffs. He'll aim to remain productive in Sunday's Game 4 in San Antonio, where the Thunder will look to take a commanding 3-1 series lead.

Mitchell got into an altercation with Devin Vassell and was assessed a technical foul with 8:19 remaining in the third quarter before checking out of the game. He later headed to the locker room and was not seen on the bench during the fourth quarter. It's unclear exactly what he's dealing with, but if Mitchell is forced to miss Game 4 on Sunday, Jared McCain, Cason Wallace and Isaiah Joe would be candidates for increased playing time, especially if Jalen Williams (hamstring) remains sidelined.

Mitchell started for Jalen Williams (hamstring), who was ruled out ahead of tipoff. However, Mitchell suffered an undisclosed injury in the third quarter after logging only 17 minutes. If he's unable to return, Jared McCain and Cason Wallace are candidates to see extra minutes the rest of the way.

Harper started the first two games of this series in place of De'Aaron Fox (ankle). However, Fox has been cleared to suit up for Game 3 and will reclaim his place in the starting lineup. Still, Harper is expected to lead the bench in minutes, assuming he's healthy enough to do so after exiting and not returning to Game 2 on Wednesday.

With Jalen Williams (hamstring) sidelined, Mitchell will return to the first unit in San Antonio. Over six starts this postseason, the second-year guard has averaged 21.2 points, 5.3 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 31.2 minutes per contest.

The rookie guard started the first two games of the series in place of De'Aaron Fox (ankle). Harper had 24 points, 11 rebounds, six assists and seven steals in Game 1. While the rookie played well in Game 2, he didn't finish the contest due to injury. With Fox available Friday, Harper will presumably head back to the bench, although he should still see plenty of minutes, assuming he is healthy enough for a full workload.

Fox missed the first two games of the series due to a lingering right ankle issue, though he'll return to action in San Antonio as the club looks to take a 2-1 series lead. Over 11 appearances this postseason, the star guard has averaged 18.8 points, 5.8 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 33.3 minutes per showing. His return will likely result in Dylan Harper, who's been cleared to play through a hip injury, moving back to the second unit.

Williams was listed as questionable heading into this contest, although he wasn't expected to play. His next opportunity to get back on the floor will be when these clubs meet for Game 4 on Sunday. With Williams sidelined Friday, Ajay Mitchell or Cason Wallace might earn the start, with Jared McCain and Isaiah Joe in line to see more work from the bench.

Although Williams is listed as questionable, he's trending in the wrong direction. He continues to be bothered by a hamstring issue after tweaking it in Game 2. If he's unable to play, the Thunder will likely lean more on Isaiah Joe, Jared McCain and Ajay Mitchell.

Harper suffered the injury during Wednesday's Game 2 and is officially questionable to play, but the Spurs will re-evaluate his status following warmups. De'Aaron Fox (ankle) is also questionable for the Spurs, so the team could be shorthanded in the backcourt.

While it wasn't the best night for McCain shooting the ball, he saw his largest workload of the postseason. If Jalen Williams (hamstring) is unable to play in Game 3, McCain could again be called upon to play a larger role on the wings.

Holmgren has the unenviable task of matching up with Victor Wembanyama, and the former's numbers have taken a hit in this series. Through two games, he's shooting a combined 7-for-17 from the field, averaging 10.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 1.0 blocks and 0.5 steals in 34.0 minutes per contest.

The 2025-26 Sixth Man of the Year, Johnson has seen his minutes go down in the postseason. Through 13 playoff games, he's averaging 19.4 minutes per game with 8.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 0.7 steals on 41.5 percent shooting from the field. De'Aaron Fox (ankle) and Dylan Harper (adductor) are questionable for Game 3, so Johnson could potentially be more involved.

Vassell was one of three Spurs to eclipse 20 points, joining Victor Wembanyama (21) and Stephon Castle (25). Vassell has been solid through 13 postseason appearances, posting averages of 13.2 points, 4.9 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 0.9 blocks and 1.2 steals.
