俄勒冈州波特兰——作为一名替补出场的左手后卫，马刺新秀迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) 表示，他非常向往圣安东尼奥传奇球星马努·吉诺比利 (Manu Ginobili)，后者也是一名左手将第六人，目前在球队担任特别顾问。
“我扮演了一个我不习惯的角色（替补），”在马刺周五晚上的G3中以120-108击败波特兰开拓者队后，哈珀说道，“但他让我明白，你必须尽一切可能去影响比赛。”
由于维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 在第二场比赛中遭遇脑震荡，目前正处于康复协议期间而缺阵，哈珀在周五晚上挺身而出，与二年级后卫斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 联手带领圣安东尼奥完成逆转，并取得系列赛2-1的领先。
哈珀和斯蒂芬·卡斯尔成为历史上第二对在季后赛中同场砍下至少25分的21岁及以下队友。哈珀替补出场贡献27分，而斯蒂芬·卡斯尔则砍下全场最高的33分。根据ESPN统计，他们加入了前俄克拉荷马城雷霆队球星凯文·杜兰特 (Kevin Durant) 和拉塞尔·威斯布鲁克 (Russell Westbrook) 的行列，后者在2010年首轮对阵洛杉矶湖人队的第三场比赛中达成了这一壮举。
哈珀在下半场砍下22分并摘下10个篮板，成为季后赛历史上以替补身份砍下25分最年轻的球员（20岁53天）。
哈珀在系列赛前两场总共仅得16分。他表示吉诺比利一直是他的导师，并补充说这位名人堂成员的“心态”是他最想效仿的。
“我们会聊聊我的角色之类的话题，”哈珀说，“这就是‘下一场比赛’。如果你打得不好，洗完澡后，就该专注于下一场了。”
斯蒂芬·卡斯尔本场还送出了5次助攻，他成为马刺队史上在季后赛中单场砍下至少30分5助攻最年轻的球员（21岁174天）。
两人帮助马刺在第三节打出一波18-3的高潮，克服了15分的落后分差，这是球队自2014年NBA总决赛第五场以来在季后赛中完成的最大逆转。哈珀用两记罚球结束了这波攻势，将比分追成85平。

哈珀在第三节贡献了圣安东尼奥29分中的12分，投篮4投3中，罚球5罚5中。他还贡献了1次助攻、1次抢断和1个盖帽。
“天赋异禀，极具冲击力，”斯蒂芬·卡斯尔在评价哈珀时说道，“他总能到达自己的投篮点。考虑到他的努力程度和自信心，我们对他有这样的表现并不意外。当你和一支球队交手多次后，双方会互相摸透，你只能去硬拼这些比赛。每一次球权都至关重要。”
第三场比赛成了后卫们的对决舞台，斯蒂芬·卡斯尔和哈珀与开拓者后卫线上的朱·霍勒迪 (Jrue Holiday)（29分）和斯库特·亨德森 (Scoot Henderson)（21分）展开了精彩对飙。
根据ESPN统计，这是霍勒迪职业生涯第六次在季后赛中砍下至少25分5篮板5助攻。与此同时，马刺老将后卫达龙·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 摆脱了开局的慢热，最终贡献18分和6次助攻。
“我们一直在努力寻找节奏，”马刺主教练米奇·约翰逊 (Mitch Johnson) 说道，“我认为在整场比赛中，我们都保持了专注。我们开始逐渐掌控局面，无论是进攻端更具冲击力，还是空间感变得更好。我们开始通过传球调动防守，让球的运转更流畅，并不断进行横向转移。”

Harper scores 27 off bench, rallies Wemby-less Spurs in Game 3
PORTLAND, Ore. – As a left-handed guard who comes off the bench, Spurs rookie Dylan Harper said he gravitated toward a fellow lefty sixth man in San Antonio legend Manu Ginobili, who now works for the organization as a special adviser.
“I play a role I’m not used to [off the bench],” Harper said after the Spurs’ 120-108 win over the Portland Trail Blazers in Friday night’s Game 3, “but he kind of put in my head that you’ve got to impact the game in any way you can.”
With Victor Wembanyama sitting out as he works through the protocol from a concussion suffered in Game 2, Harper was able to do just that Friday night, teaming with second-year guard Stephon Castle to lead San Antonio to a come-from-behind victory and take a 2-1 series lead.
Harper and Castle became the second pair of teammates age 21 or younger to each score 25 points or more in a playoff game, with Harper coming off the bench to deliver 27 points and Castle scoring a game-high 33. They joined former Oklahoma City Thunder stars Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, who accomplished the feat in Game 3 of the 2010 opening round against the Los Angeles Lakers, according to ESPN Research.
Harper, who scored 22 points in the second half and grabbed 10 rebounds, became the youngest player (20 years, 53 days) to score 25 points as a reserve in a playoff game.
Harper, who totaled just 16 points in the first two games of the series, said Ginobili has been a mentor to him, adding that the Hall of Famer’s “mentality” is what he tries to emulate most.
“We have conversations about my role and stuff like that,” Harper said. “It’s next game up. If you have a bad game, once you get out of the shower, it’s next game.”
Castle, who also had five assists, became the youngest in Spurs history (21 years, 174 days) to finish a postseason game with at least 30 points and five assists.
The duo helped the Spurs go on an 18-3 run to overcome a 15-point deficit in the third quarter, their largest playoff comeback since Game 5 of the 2014 NBA Finals. Harper capped the run with a pair of free throws that tied the score at 85.

Harper contributed 12 of San Antonio’s 29 points in the third quarter, shooting 3-of-4 from the field and 5-of-5 from the free throw line. He also had an assist, a steal and a block.
“Super talented, played a downhill game,” Castle said of Harper. “The guy got to his spots. We don’t expect [anything] less [because of] how much work he puts in, how confident he is. Once you play a team a certain amount of times, you start to figure each other out and you just have to grind those games out. Every possession matters.”
Game 3 became a showcase of guard play, with Castle and Harper dueling strong performances from the Trail Blazers backcourt of Jrue Holiday (29 points) and Scoot Henderson (21 points).
Holiday’s performance marked his sixth career playoff game with at least 25 points, five rebounds and five assists, according to ESPN Research. Veteran Spurs guard De’Aaron Fox, meanwhile, shook off a slow start to finish with 18 points and six assists.
“We kept working the game,” Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said. “I thought over the duration of it, we just stayed with it. We started getting incremental things that were going our way whether we were starting to get a little more downhill offensively, the spacing got better. We started passing the ball over the guys, letting the ball breathe a little bit and kept moving side to side.”
