Summary

  • San Antonio fans poured onto SW Military Drive after the Spurs' Game 5 NBA Finals loss to the New York Knicks, turning the night into a celebration of the team's season.
  • Game 5 still featured 25 points from Dylan Harper and a 19-point, 14-rebound, five-block line from Victor Wembanyama, underscoring why supporters marked the run despite the defeat.
  • The Spurs' 2025-26 surge carried them from 13th to 2nd in the Western Conference and through Oklahoma City in the West finals to reach the NBA Finals.
  • That response reflected a season in which San Antonio exceeded expectations, with fans celebrating the broader breakthrough rather than the final result alone.
