圣安东尼奥马刺队 (San Antonio Spurs) 通过赢得西部半决赛的首个客场比赛，再次夺回了主场优势。这是一场势均力敌的较量，最终靠着第四节的英雄表现分出胜负。维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 打出了他年轻职业生涯中最好的季后赛表现，砍下39分、15个篮板和5次盖帽，带领球队以115-108战胜明尼苏达森林狼队 (Minnesota Timberwolves)。
文班亚马的表现感觉像是他的第一场“成名战”。在比赛的关键时刻，这位马刺队的头号球星统治了攻防两端，凭一己之力带领球队走向胜利。这显然是一个A+级的表现。
文班亚马领衔第三场比赛的球员评分。在此提醒，这些评分基于每位球员的场上表现，不局限于统计数据。 “B”级代表个人的平均水平。如果球员上场时间少于5分钟或仅在垃圾时间上场，其评分将为“不完整”。
维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama)
37分钟，39分，15篮板，1助攻，1抢断，5盖帽，1失误，5犯规，18投13中，三分球5投3中，正负值+16
文班亚马在第三场比赛的表现中最令人印象深刻的，或许是他影响力的多样性。他在低位得分，完成空接，凭借力量和技巧冲击篮筐完成终结，还能在掩护外切中命中三分。防守端，他在外线防守，完成敏锐的轮转，并掌控了禁区，即便他在第四节是带着五次犯规在打球。
他在季后赛级别的身体对抗中完成了这一切。明尼苏达整晚都在针对文班亚马，拉拽他、抓挠他、推搡他（甚至在他腾空时）。文班亚马遭到了严密的肉搏，但他克服了困难，赢得了胜利。他正以一种许多年轻球员无法做到的方式迎接挑战。
他的统治级表现也是马刺队在 FanDuel 上以-186的赔率被看好赢得第四场比赛的重要原因。
评分： A+
达龙·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox)
35分钟，17分，3篮板，5助攻，1抢断，2失误，3犯规，19投7中，三分球5投1中，正负值-2
福克斯的表现可谓半场两重天。他在第二节末段通过冲击篮筐和禁区得分找回了状态。他将这种势头带到了下半场，在关键时刻得分，并在跌宕起伏的第三节为球队注入了活力。福克斯的投篮命中率并不高，但他命中了关键球，为胜利立下汗马功劳。
有趣的是，福克斯在关键时刻的大部分时间里并不在场。当森林狼队对马刺队进行全场紧逼时，他终于被换上场，并很好地保护了球权。
评分： B
斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle)
40分钟，13分，4篮板，12助攻，4失误，3犯规，11投3中，三分球3投1中，正负值+17
卡斯尔拿到了两双，并送出了令人惊叹的12次助攻。他整个赛季在转换进攻中推速度、冲击篮筐完成强力终结，或者在防守收缩时传球给空位队友方面都表现出色。虽然卡斯尔今晚投篮效率不高，但他通过走上罚球线弥补了这一点，罚球8投6中。
卡斯尔对球的处理有些随意，特别是在比赛后期。公平地说，他在外线承受了巨大的防守压力。森林狼队在比赛后期派多名大个子围堵他，试图迫使他失误。随着系列赛的进行，他需要减少这些失误。
评分： B
朱利安·尚帕尼 (Julian Champagnie)
29分钟，6分，12篮板，3助攻，2抢断，2犯规，7投2中，三分球6投2中，正负值+5
尚帕尼在第三场比赛中扮演了略有不同的角色，但依然表现出色。他6次三分出手仅命中2球，但通过出色的防守和篮板球弥补了手感的不足。尚帕尼抢下了12个篮板，其中4个是前场篮板。他全场最重要的表现之一是在快攻中抢下进攻篮板，随后助攻凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson) 命中关键三分。尚帕尼在外线防守也表现稳健，并在胜利中贡献了两次抢断。
评分： B
德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell)
36分钟，13分，6篮板，3助攻，2抢断，1失误，2犯规，14投6中，三分球6投1中，正负值+10
瓦塞尔的三分手感在第三场比赛中依然挣扎。他在季后赛的三分命中率仅为30.4%，周五的比赛中他6投仅1中。其中很多出手都是大空位。他还没能找到像中距离跳投那样的节奏。值得庆幸的是，那些中距离跳投非常稳健。他的急停跳投目前看起来非常出色。上半场他曾面对鲁迪·戈贝尔 (Rudy Gobert) 完成了一个精彩的跨步终结。
有趣的是，主教练米奇·约翰逊 (Mitch Johnson) 在第三场比赛中选择让瓦塞尔担任安东尼·爱德华兹 (Anthony Edwards) 的主要防守者。我不确定这是否是最佳决定。爱德华兹拿到了系列赛最高的32分。瓦塞尔在无球状态下切断传球路线时表现最好，而不是作为持球防守的锁死者。
评分： B-
迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper)
20分钟，8分，4篮板，1助攻，1抢断，1盖帽，1失误，2犯规，6投2中，三分球2投0中，正负值-1
哈珀在第三场比赛中冲击篮筐变得更加困难。森林狼队希望他去投中距离跳投或面对干扰的三分球。哈珀仅命中了一个高难度的中距离投篮。尽管进攻端表现平平，但哈珀在防守端依然强硬。我非常喜欢他防守爱德华兹的对位。他拥有足够的力量、臂展和横移速度来给对手制造麻烦。
评分： B-
凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson)
19分钟，11分，2篮板，1助攻，1抢断，1犯规，7投3中，三分球4投2中，正负值-11
马刺队在第三场比赛中普遍存在过度轮转或完全漏掉轮转的问题。约翰逊是主要责任人之一。他在防守突破时过度协防，导致了一些空位三分的机会，尽管文班亚马在禁区内的位置非常稳固。
他凭借季后赛至今最好的三分表现弥补了防守端的错误。约翰逊的活力，尤其是在转换进攻中的冲劲，在马刺队本系列赛的两场胜利中发挥了作用。
评分： B-
卢克·科内特 (Luke Kornet)
10分钟，2分，1篮板，1盖帽，3犯规，1投1中，正负值-9
圣安东尼奥在科内特上场的时间里只是勉强支撑。他在内线被戈贝尔压制，而在第二场比赛中他对位戈贝尔时表现尚可。好的一面是，文班亚马表现太出色了，完全抵消了科内特在场时的分差。
评分： C
哈里森·巴恩斯 (Harrison Barnes)
6分钟，1篮板，1抢断，正负值+3
巴恩斯上场时间不多，在场时也没有产生太大影响。他在有限的时间里确实完成了一次抢断。
评分： C
卡特·布莱恩特 (Carter Bryant)
8分钟，6分，2犯规，2投2中，三分球2投2中，正负值+7
布莱恩特投中了两个关键三分，并展现了扎实的防守。约翰逊让他去防守朱利叶斯·兰德尔 (Julius Randle)，这对他来说并不是最佳对位。布莱恩特更擅长利用他的体型、力量和速度在外线制造混乱。在低位与更强壮的兰德尔肉搏对他来说有点吃亏。
评分： B
缺阵球员： 哈里森·英格拉姆 (Harrison Ingram)、大卫·琼斯-加西亚 (David Jones-Garcia)、伊曼纽尔·米勒 (Emanuel Miller)

Spurs vs. Timberwolves player grades: Wembanyama shines as San Antonio takes 2-1 lead
The San Antonio Spurs once again reclaimed home-court advantage by winning their first road game of the Western Conference Semifinals. It was a tightly contested battle that came down to fourth-quarter heroics. Victor Wembanyama had the best playoff game of his young career, putting up 39 points, 15 rebounds, and 5 blocks on the way to a 115-108 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Wembanyama’s performance felt like his first “legacy game.” With the game on the line, San Antonio’s face of the franchise dominated both ends and willed the Spurs to victory. It was an obvious A+ performance.
Wembanyama leads the player grades for Game Three. As a quick reminder, these grades are based on each player’s on-court performance, going beyond just the stat sheet. A “B” grade represents the average performance for an individual. If a player logs fewer than 5 minutes or plays only in garbage time, their grade will be incomplete.
Victor Wembanyama
37 minutes, 39 points, 15 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 5 blocks, 1 turnover, 5 fouls, 13-for-18 shooting, 3-for-5 threes, +16
Perhaps what was most impressive about Wembanyama’s Game Three performance was the diversity of his impact. He scored in the post, on lobs, got to the rim for finishes with strength and finesse, and hit threes on flare screens. On defense, he guarded on the perimeter, made sharp rotations, and controlled the paint, even when he played with five fouls in the fourth quarter.
He did all of it while playing through the physicality of a playoff matchup. Minnesota went at Wembanyama all night, holding him, clawing at him, pushing and shoving him (even when he was airborne). Wembanyama took an absolute beating, but fought through adversity to pull out a win. He is rising to the occasion in a way not many young players can.
His dominant play is a big reason why the Spurs are -186 favorites to win Game Four on FanDuel.
Grade: A+
De’Aaron Fox
35 minutes, 17 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, 2 turnovers, 3 fouls, 7-for-19 shooting, 1-for-5 threes, -2
It was a tale of two halves for Fox. He got going near the end of the second quarter by attacking the basket and finishing in the paint. He carried that momentum into the second half, scoring at opportune times and giving the team a boost during a wild, back-and-forth third quarter. Fox didn’t get a ton of shots to fall, but he made timely buckets that played a big role in the win.
Interestingly, Fox wasn’t on the court for a lot of crunch time. He finally checked when the Wolves were full-court pressing the Spurs and did a nice job taking care of the ball.
**Grade:B
Stephon Castle
*40 minutes, 13 points, 4 rebounds, 12 assists, 4 turnovers, 3 fouls, 3-for-11 shooting, 1-for-3 threes, +*17
Castle had a double-double with an eye-popping 12 assists. He’s been great all season long at pushing the pace in transition, or getting downhill for physical finishes, or passes to open players when the defense collapses. While Castle had an inefficient shooting night, he made up for it by getting to the free-throw line, where he went 6-8.
Castle was a bit loose with the ball, particularly late in the game. To be fair, he faced a ton of defensive pressure on the perimeter. The Wolves were sending multiple big bodies at him late in the game to force turnovers. He’ll need to clean up some of these turnovers as the series goes on.
**Grade:B
Julian Champagnie
*29 minutes, 6 points, 12 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals, 2 fouls, 2-for-7 shooting, 2-for-6 threes, +*5
Champagnie played a slightly different role in Game Three and thrived nonetheless. He only knocked down two of his six three-pointers, but made up for it with good defense and rebounding. Champagnie grabbed 12 boards, 4 of them offensive. One of his biggest plays of the game was an offensive rebound on the break, leading to a huge three by Keldon Johnson. Champagnie also held his own on the perimeter and picked up two steals in the win.
Grade: B
Devin Vassell
36 minutes, 13 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals, 1 turnover, 2 fouls, 6-for-14 shooting, 1-for-6 threes, +10
Vassell’s three-point shooting struggles continued in Game Three. He is shooting 30.4% from deep in the playoffs, and he only hit one of his six attempts on Friday. A lot of these shots are pretty open. He just hasn’t found the same rhythm that he’s experiencing on his mid-range jumpers. Thankfully, those mid-range jumpers have been money. His pull-up looks really good right now. He had an awesome step-through finish around Rudy Gobert in the first half.
It was interesting that Mitch Johnson elected to make Vassell the primary defender on Anthony Edwards in Game Three. I’m not sure it was the best decision. Edwards had a series-high 32 points. Vassell is at his best playing in the passing lanes off the ball, rather than acting as a stopper guarding the ball.
Grade: B–
Dylan Harper
20 minutes, 8 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1 block, 1 turnover, 2 fouls, 2-for-6 shooting, 0-for-2 threes, -1
Harper had a much harder time getting to the basket in Game Three. The Wolves want him to shoot mid-range jumpers or tough contested three-pointers. Harper was only able to get one of those tough mid-range shots to go. Despite a lackluster offensive game, Harper remained strong defensively. I love the matchup with him on Edwards. He has the strength, length, and lateral quickness to make him work.
**Grade:B-
Keldon Johnson
19 minutes, 11 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1 foul, 3-for-7 shooting, 2-for-4 threes, -11
The Spurs generally struggled with over-rotating on defense or missing rotations completely in Game Three. Johnson was a primary culprit. He would overhelp on drives, which led to some open threes, even though Wembanyama was in a solid position in the paint.
He made up for those defensive mistakes with his best three-point shooting game of the playoffs. Johnson’s energy, primarily in transition, has made a difference in the Spurs’ two wins this series.
**Grade:B-
Luke Kornet
10 minutes, 2 points, 1 rebound, 1 block, 3 fouls, 1-for-1 shooting, -9
San Antonio just barely survived the Kornet minutes. He was outclassed by Gobert inside, after playing well against him in Game Two. The bright side was that Wembanyama was so good that he completely negated the point differential when Kornet was in the game.
Grade: C
Harrison Barnes
6 minutes, 1 rebound, 1 steal, +3
Barnes didn’t play much. and didn’t make much of an impact while he was in the game. He did grab a steal in his limited playing time.
Grade: C
Carter Bryant
*8 minutes, 6 points, 2 fouls, 2-for-2 shooting, 2-for-2 threes, +*7
Bryant hit two huge threes and played some solid defense. Johnson had him guarding Julius Randle, which isn’t the best matchup for him. Bryant is much better at creating havoc on the perimeter with his size, strength, and speed. He’s at a bit of a disadvantage banging with the bigger Randle down low.
Grade: B
Inactives: Harrison Ingram, David Jones-Garcia, Emanuel Miller
