Spurs keep rolling into conference finals
The San Antonio Spurs have exceeded external expectations for the season by reaching the Western Conference finals with a young roster.
They're focused on facing the defending NBA champion Oklahoma City Thunder and not on their supposed timeline for contending.
The Spurs dispatched the Minnesota Timberwolves in six games in their second-round series ending with a 139-109 victory.
Stephon Castle highlighted another strong performance from the backcourt with 32 points and 11 rebounds.
The fourth overall pick in the 2024 draft is one of six primary rotation players who the Spurs added with a first-rounder.
