Postgame sounds after Spurs beat Trail Blazers in Game 1
San Antonio Spurs forward Victor Wembanyama (1) goes up for a shot during the first half of Game 1 of a first-round NBA playoff series against the Portland Trail Blazers at Frost Bank Center, Sunday, April 19, 2026, in San Antonio.
Stepping onto the court for an NBA Playoff game for the first time in his career, San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama could sense a shift in the atmosphere.
But the Spurs’ third-year star proved plenty ready for the test, scoring 35 points to set a franchise record for a playoff debut as No. 2 seed San Antonio continued to roll, cruising to a 111-98 win against the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday at the Frost Bank Center.
“Of course, it is obviously different,” Wembanyama said. “But we’ve been really good in the regular season, so we have no reason to act differently or do anything different in terms of tactics.”
Here’s a glimpse of what the Spurs had to say after Sunday’s game:

Speaking to the media following the game, Wembanyama also addressed the team’s emphasis on having fun amid the work, the effort to handle Portland’s physicality, and his role in carrying on the legacy of franchise icons like Gregg Popovich, David Robinson and Tim Duncan.
“It feels safe,” Wembanyama said. “It feels like if you trip, there are a lot of hands that are ready to catch you. So, from day one, it’s felt that way.”

Mitch Johnson
Coach Mitch Johnson spoke on the team’s defensive effort, Wembanyama and the rest of San Antonio’s playoff newcomers settling in, and the milestone of a first postseason win.
Most of the Spurs are experiencing the playoffs for the first time, and Johnson said the group answered the challenge.
“I thought they responded great,” Johnson said. “We talked about this was going to be an atmosphere and a level of energy and enthusiasm in this building that none of us have felt. Not sitting on the bench in the roles we’re in right now. And that was OK. … They deserved that. They deserved that moment to feel this city, their fans, that crowd giving them that energy, and I thought they ended up getting settled.”

Devin Vassell
The Spurs guard reflected on his stretch of ripping off eight straight points during the third quarter, San Antonio’s defensive effort against Portland’s Deni Avdija, and the process of adjusting to a playoff environment.
“Fans were amazing. Atmosphere was crazy,” Vassell said. “I think it took us a little bit to settle in. That’s just first game, maybe nerves, just anxious. Everybody was ready to play. But as we settled in that second half — they went on a run in the third quarter — but as we got stops and got out in transition and really settled into our game, that’s when we started to pull away.”

Luke Kornet
The Spurs center who won an NBA title with the Boston Celtics two years ago talked about getting the rest of a young roster up to speed on what to expect from a playoff setting.
He also reflected on seeing the seats filled with Fiesta colors, finding opportunities to score 10 points off the bench, and how San Antonio handled a new postseason test.
“There’s a lot of stuff to adjust to, but I feel like our energy and physicality, and especially the pace and togetherness, I think, were great,” Kornet said. “That’s kind of how we’ve been playing all season.”

Julian Champagnie
The Spurs forward talked about the raucous atmosphere in the Frost Bank Center, shaking off a little rust after a short break following the regular season, Wembanyama’s dazzling play, and group’s mentality stepping into the playoffs.
“I think we got out there and were just, ‘Let’s hoop,’” Champagnie said. “I could imagine everybody had some nerves and some anxiousness, but I thought we all went out there and no one showed no fear.”
