Victor Wembanyama has responded superbly to the desperate situation as the San Antonio Spurs sent the Western Conference finals back to Oklahoma City for a deciding Game 7, routing the Thunder 118-91.
Facing an elimination game for the first time in his NBA career, towering French superstar Wembanyama had a fiery pregame address for teammates on Thursday night, something he doesn't typically do.
He then amassed 28 points, 10 rebounds, three blocks and two steals to help ensure the host Spurs bounced back from their listless Game 5 loss and extended this see-sawing series.
