圣安东尼奥马刺与明尼苏达森林狼的次轮对决异常胶着，这一点几乎无人质疑。有趣的是，尽管系列赛给人的感觉难解难分，但马刺在三场胜利中有两场的分差超过了 20 分。圣安东尼奥在主场以 126-97 轻松击败森林狼，取得了系列赛大比分 3-2 的领先。
马刺本场由回归的维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 领衔，他在第四场因被驱逐出场而缺席了大部分时间。年度最佳第六人凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson) 也为他提供了强力支援，打出了季后赛至今表现最好的一场比赛。凭借这两人的出色发挥，马刺将于周五前往明尼苏达参加第六场比赛，目前他们在 FanDuel 上的胜赔为 -190，更被看好获胜。
快速提醒一下，球员评分基于每位球员在场上的表现，不仅限于统计数据。“B”级代表该球员的平均水平。如果球员出场时间少于 5 分钟或仅在垃圾时间上场，其评分将显示为“不适用”。
维克托·文班亚马
33 分钟，27 分，17 篮板，5 助攻，3 盖帽，4 失误，1 犯规，16 投 9 中，三分 5 投 2 中，正负值 +24
文班亚马在开场的前 6 分钟内便在进攻端爆发，砍下 16 分。他打得极具侵略性，在森林狼派出的每一位防守者头上得分。即便明尼苏达试图激怒他，文班依然保持冷静，并在场上摧毁了对手。他在比赛中段的影响力略显平稳，但在下半场起到了至关重要的作用。明尼苏达在比赛中对文班亚马的垂直高度 (Verticality) 束手无策。感觉他可以轻松越过防守者接空接球或抢下篮板。如果你想要一个能体现他在防守端影响力的数据：马刺在内线得分上以 69-36 完胜森林狼。
评分： A
达龙·福克斯
34 分钟，18 分，4 篮板，5 助攻，1 失误，2 犯规，15 投 6 中，三分 4 投 1 中，正负值 +24
圣安东尼奥在第五场比赛早期频繁使用达龙·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 与文班亚马的挡拆配合。福克斯能够持球冲击篮下，而文班亚马强硬的空切篮下为马刺其他球员创造了大量的进攻空间。福克斯本场没有过度依赖跳投，而是选择杀入禁区制造威胁。在防守端，福克斯表现强硬，尤其是在换防安东尼·爱德华兹 (Anthony Edwards) 时，给对方制造了不小的麻烦。
在明尼苏达可能进行的终结之战中，马刺迫切需要他打出高水平表现。如果他的抛投和中距离跳投能找回准星，将对球队大有裨益。
评分： B
斯蒂芬·卡斯尔
27 分钟，17 分，4 篮板，6 助攻，2 抢断，1 盖帽，4 失误，3 犯规，11 投 8 中，三分 1 投 0 中，正负值 +4
正如斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 职业生涯一直以来所做的那样，他在防守端极具竞争意识，并在突破时展现了极强的对抗性。看到他上一个回合还在防守朱利叶斯·兰德尔 (Julius Randle)，下一个回合就能限制爱德华兹，这简直令人惊叹。他竟然强壮到足以将兰德尔这样的力量型球员限制在系列赛之外，这确实有些不可思议。这是卡斯尔的一场高光秀，他多次飞身冲击篮筐完成劲爆扣篮。当森林狼祭出联防时，卡斯尔在高位的策应判断非常出色。他的失误依然是个问题，大多数失误都发生在他试图持球做过多动作的时候。
评分： B
朱利安·尚帕尼
29 分钟，8 分，4 篮板，2 抢断，5 犯规，9 投 3 中，三分 8 投 2 中，正负值 +15
朱利安·尚帕尼 (Julian Champagnie) 在周二尝试了一些难度较高的三分球。尽管森林狼在换防中针对他，试图让爱德华兹单挑，但他在这轮系列赛中表现得相当稳健。虽然不算是那种惊世骇俗的隔扣，但尚帕尼在第四节的扣篮确实点燃了全场观众的热情。
评分： B-
德文·瓦塞尔
32 分钟，12 分，3 篮板，2 助攻，1 盖帽，1 失误，3 犯规，10 投 4 中，三分 7 投 2 中，正负值 +22
当德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell) 在场时，马刺的表现要好得多。仅仅是他作为外线投射威胁的存在，就为圣安东尼奥的进攻拉开了巨大的空间。他在第五场再次承担了防守爱德华兹的任务，并且做得更出色，多次迫使对方陷入包围圈。
瓦塞尔目前最大的问题是错失了一些空位投篮。在明尼苏达客场得分会变得更加困难，如果马刺不想让系列赛进入抢七，瓦塞尔需要尽快找回外线手感。
评分： B
迪伦·哈珀
25 分钟，12 分，10 篮板，2 助攻，1 抢断，1 盖帽，2 失误，3 犯规，10 投 5 中，三分 1 投 0 中，正负值 +13
迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) 在替补席上的表现非常出色。虽然这算不上他进攻端最华丽的一场比赛，但他凭借场上最顶尖的运动能力和拼劲弥补了这一点。他抢下了 5 个进攻篮板，其中大多数是在身材比他高大的森林狼球员头上抢到的。他利用运动天赋在篮下顶着对抗完成终结，包括比赛后期一个精彩的隔人暴扣。最重要的一点是，哈珀在季后赛中展现出了超越年龄的成熟，他注定会成为球星。
评分： A
凯尔登·约翰逊
22 分钟，21 分，2 篮板，2 抢断，1 盖帽，2 失误，3 犯规，11 投 8 中，三分 3 投 1 中，正负值 +17
约翰逊打出了季后赛至今的最佳表现。他用强悍的身体对抗向森林狼发起冲击。约翰逊像坦克一样冲入禁区，用肩膀撞开空间，然后在高大防守者头上完成终结。他一直被视为这支球队的灵魂人物，周二晚上的表现证明了这一点。这是球队非常需要他站出来的一场比赛，且看这种势头能否延续到第六场。
评分： A+
卢克·科内特
11 分钟，2 抢断，1 盖帽，1 犯规，1 投 0 中，正负值 -2
在比赛的大部分时间里，马刺在卢克·科内特 (Luke Kornet) 上场时打得比较挣扎。不过他在第四节有一段非常出色的发挥，通过一次盖帽和几次破坏对方的空接传球保护了篮筐，帮助马刺维持并扩大了大比分领先优势。
评分： B-
哈里森·巴恩斯
4 分钟，1 篮板，1 助攻，正负值 0
哈里森·巴恩斯 (Harrison Barnes) 在一次暂停后为瓦塞尔送出了全场最佳传球之一的空接。我简直不敢相信那球能传过去，而且瓦塞尔还完成了终结。
评分： 不适用
卡特·布莱恩特
12 分钟，3 分，4 篮板，2 助攻，1 失误，1 犯规，1 投 1 中，三分 1 投 1 中，正负值 +9
卡特·布莱恩特 (Carter Bryant) 在本系列赛有限的出场时间里表现稳健。他在第一段出场时间里就投中了一记关键三分。他在场时展现了强硬的外线防守，并保持了极佳的拼劲。
评分： B
乔丹·麦克劳林
3 分钟，2 助攻，正负值 +7
乔丹·麦克劳林 (Jordan McLaughlin) 在垃圾时间帮助马刺推进节奏，同时没有采取任何激进的进攻动作去刷分。老将风范。
评分： 不适用
林迪·沃特斯三世
2 分钟，3 分，2 投 1 中，三分 1 投 1 中，正负值 +4
林迪·沃特斯三世 (Lindy Waters III) 保持了一贯的风格，替补上场后果断出手并命中一记三分。
评分： 不适用
凯利·奥利尼克
2 分钟，3 分，1 投 1 中，三分 1 投 1 中，正负值 +4
凯利·奥利尼克 (Kelly Olynyk) 在垃圾时间获得了一个空位三分机会，并在底角稳稳命中。
评分： 不适用
俾斯麦·比永博
2 分钟，2 分，1 篮板，2 犯规，2 投 1 中，正负值 +4
俾斯麦·比永博 (Bismack Biyombo) 在挡拆中完成了一次上篮，但随后被乔安·贝林格 (Joan Beringer) 盖掉。此外，他在 2 分钟内领到了 2 次犯规。
评分： 不适用

Spurs vs. Timberwolves player grades: San Antonio defends home court to take a 3-2 series lead
The San Antonio Spurs second-round matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves has been incredibly close. Not many people would argue that point. It’s funny that despite how close the series has felt, two of the Spurs’ three wins have been by 20+ points. San Antonio handled the Wolves at home in a 126-97 victory to take a 3-2 lead in the series.
They were led by a comeback effort from Victor Wembanyama, who sat most of Game Four after being ejected. He was aided by the Sixth Man of the Year, Keldon Johnson, who had his best game of the playoffs by far. Thanks to those two, the Spurs will head to Minnesota on Friday for Game Six, where they are -190 favorites to win on FanDuel.
As a quick reminder, player 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
33 minutes, 27 points, 17 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 blocks, 4 turnovers, 1 foul, 9-for-16 shooting, 2-for-5 threes, +24
Wembanyama exploded offensively for 16 points in the first 6 minutes of play. He came out with force and scored over every defender the Wolves could throw at him. Even when Minnesota tried to get under his skin, Wemby remained composed and torched them on the court. He had more of a subdued impact throughout the game, but was crucial in the second half. Minnesota really struggled with Wembanyama’s verticality in the game. It felt like he could just go over the top of them on lobs at the rim or for rebounds. If you want a stat that really shows his defensive impact, the Spurs outscored the Wolves 69-36 in the paint.
Grade: A
De’Aaron Fox
34 minutes, 18 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 turnover, 2 fouls, 6-for-15 shooting, 1-for-4 threes, +24
San Antonio went to the Fox-Wembanyama pick-and-roll early and often in Game Five. Fox was able to get downhill, and Wembanyama’s hard cuts to the basket opened up a lot of offense for the rest of the Spurs. Rather than relying on his jump shot, Fox opted to get into the paint and make things happen from there. Fox looked strong on the other end, especially when he got switched onto Anthony Edwards, who he really gave some issues.
The Spurs will desperately need a good performance from him in a potential close-out game in Minnesota. Getting some of his floaters and mid-range jumpers to fall would help tremendously.
**Grade:B
Stephon Castle
27 minutes, 17 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, 1 block, 4 turnovers, 3 fouls, 8-for-11 shooting, 0-for-1 threes, +4
As he has done his entire career, Castle competed on the defensive end and was super physical on his drives. It’s been incredible to see him go from guarding Julius Randle on one possession to slowing down Edwards on the next. The fact that he’s strong enough to take a bruiser like Randle out of the series is kind of unbelievable. This was a highlight-reel game for Castle, as he soared to the rim for some high-flying dunks. When the Wolves went to a zone, Castle made great reads from the high post to beat it. His turnovers continue to be an issue. Most of them come when he’s just trying to do a little too much with the ball in his hands.
**Grade:B
Julian Champagnie
29 minutes, 8 points, 4 rebounds, 2 steals, 5 fouls, 3-for-9 shooting, 2-for-8 threes, +15
Champagnie took some tougher threes on Tuesday. He has held his own in this series despite the Wolves targeting him a bit with switches onto Edwards. It wasn’t quite an emphatic poster, but Champagnie’s dunk in the fourth got the arena off its feet.
Grade: B–
Devin Vassell
32 minutes, 12 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block, 1 turnover, 3 fouls, 4-for-10 shooting, 2-for-7 threes, +22
The Spurs were much better with Vassell on the floor. Just being a threat to shoot the ball from deep opens things up a lot for San Antonio’s offense. He’s got the Edwards assignment again in Game Five and did a much better job at guarding him and forcing him into double-teams.
The biggest issue in Vassell’s game is that he’s just missing open shots. Offense has been harder to come by in Minnesota. Vassell will need to find his stroke from deep fast if the Spurs don’t want this series to go to seven games.
Grade: B
Dylan Harper
25 minutes, 12 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, 1 block, 2 turnovers, 3 fouls, 5-for-10 shooting, 0-for-1 threes, +13
Harper was great off the bench. It wasn’t his most dynamic offensive game, but he made up for it by being one of the most athletic and determined players on the court. He grabbed 5 offensive rebounds, most of them over the top of bigger Minnesota players. He finished through contact with athleticism at the basket, including a sick poster jam late in the game. The biggest takeaway here is that Harper has looked mature beyond his years in the playoffs. He’s destined to be a star.
**Grade:A
Keldon Johnson
22 minutes, 21 points, 2 rebounds, 2 steals, 1 block, 2 turnovers, 3 fouls, 8-for-11 shooting, 1-for-3 threes,+17
Johnson put on his best performance of the playoffs by far. He took the game to the Wolves with his physicality. KJ barreled into the paint and cleared space for himself with his shoulder before finishing over the top of taller defenders. He’s been regarded as the heart and soul of this team. It showed on Tuesday night. This was a much-needed game from him. We’ll see if that momentum carries over into Game Six.
**Grade:A+
Luke Kornet
*11 minutes, 2 steals, 1 block, 1 foul, 0-for-1 shooting, –*2
San Antonio struggled in Kornet’s minutes for most of the game. He had a great stretch in the fourth quarter, helping the Spurs maintain and extend their big lead by protecting the basket with a block and some tip-aways on lobs.
Grade: B–
Harrison Barnes
4 minutes, 1 rebound, 1 assist, +/- 0
Barnes made one of the best passes of the game on a lob to Vassell out of a timeout. I couldn’t believe it got through and that Vassell finished it.
Grade: Incomplete
Carter Bryant
12 minutes, 3 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 turnover, 1 foul, 1-for-1 shooting, 1-for-1 threes, +9
Bryant has been solid in his limited minutes this series. He hit a big three in his first stint. He played strong perimeter defense and maintained an excellent effort when he was in the game.
Grade: B
Jordan McLaughlin
3 minutes, 2 assists, +7
J-Mac helped the Spurs push the pace in garbage time without doing anything offensive to run up the score. Veteran move.
Grade: Incomplete
Lindy Waters III
2 minutes, 3 points, 1-for-2 shooting, 1-for-1 threes, +4
In classic fashion, Waters let it fly off the bench and splashed in a three.
Grade: Incomplete
Kelly Olynyk
2 minutes, 3 points, 1-for-1 shooting, 1-for-1 threes, +4
Olynyk got a wide-open look at a three-pointer in garbage time and knocked it down from the corner.
Grade: Incomplete
Bismack Biyombo
2 minutes, 2 points, 1 rebound, 2 fouls, 1-for-2 shooting, +4
Biyombo got a layup in the pick and roll and then got blocked by Joan Beringer later. He also committed 2 fouls in 2 minutes.
Grade: Incomplete
Inactives: Harrison Ingram, David Jones-Garcia, Emanuel Miller
