Trail Blazers rally for 106-103 win over Spurs to even series after Wembanyama
exits with injury
By RAUL DOMINGUEZ
Associated Press
SAN ANTONIO (AP) --- Scoot Henderson scored 31 points and the Portland Trail
Blazers took advantage of an injury to Spurs star Victor Wembanyama, rallying
for a 106-103 victory over San Antonio on Tuesday night to even their Western
Conference playoff series at one game apiece.
Wembanyama tumbled face-first when he was fouled by Jrue Holiday in the second
quarter and his jaw slammed into the floor. He entered the NBA's concussion
protocol, which raises the possibility the versatile 7-foot-4 center could miss
multiple games.
The second-seeded Spurs looked like they could win without Wemby, building a
14-point lead early in the fourth quarter before their offense stagnated.
Portland held San Antonio without a field goal for the final 3:37 as they
closed the game on an 11-2 run. Robert Williams III converted an alley-oop dunk
with 12 seconds left for a 104-101 lead after Deni Avdija muscled through the
paint and fed him the ball.
Holiday had 16 points and nine assists, Avdija scored 14 and Williams finished
with 11.
Stephon Castle led the Spurs with 18 points, De'Aaron Fox scored 17 and Devin
Vassell had 16 points and 12 rebounds.
Game 3 is Friday at Portland.
