Dylan Harper summed it up: “Sky is the limit.” It’s clear this young squad is learning and growing together.

The NBA Cup “Runner-Up Curse” Might Actually Be a Finals Blessing

So far, the NBA Cup runner-up has turned into a Finals team within two seasons. 2023 NBA Cup: Lakers beat Pacers → Pacers make the Finals in 2025 2024 NBA Cup: Bucks beat Thunder → Thunder make the Finals in 2025 2025 NBA Cup: Knicks beat Spurs → Spurs Finals in 2026 or 2027? It’s probably coincidence, but it also kind of makes sense: if you’re good enough to reach the NBA Cup Final, you’re usually a “one leap away” team. You’ve already proven you can win high-stakes games, and you have a clear blueprint for what you’re missing. Are you betting on Wemby making the Finals in the next two years? #NBA #NBACup #Spurs #Knicks #Wembanyama #NBAStats #NBADiscussion

Victor Wembanyama fights back tears after NBA Cup loss, reveals he “lost somebody today”

Victor Wembanyama could barely get through his postgame presser after the Spurs’ NBA Cup loss to the Knicks. He answered one question, then started to tear up and said, “I’m sorry, I lost somebody today,” before taking one more question and walking off. Per reports, Wemby had just learned earlier in the day that his grandmother passed away in France, yet he still suited up and put up 18 points and 16 rebounds in the final. Basketball aside, you could see how much it all hit him at once. What was your reaction seeing that clip, and how do you feel about players trying to compete through something like this? #VictorWembanyama #Spurs #NBACup #NBA #Basketball
