The San Antonio Spurs trail 2-0 in the best-of-seven NBA finals series after dropping the first two games at home. Game 3 is set for Monday night at Madison Square Garden.
Series situation Victor Wembanyama said on Sunday that acceptance of both setbacks and successes is key. The 22-year-old added that the situation matches what he prepared for during his career. The Spurs lost Game 2 by a score of 105-104 after a late turnover and missed final shot. They had trailed by 14 points in the second half of Game 1 before rallying and falling short.
Player and coach comments Wembanyama stated the team must use its efforts more effectively. He noted the group remained relentless but left some opportunities unused. Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said the team has put in good work at times without converting it into results.
He added that the opponent made plays late in possessions. Johnson said avoiding a 3-0 deficit is the immediate priority. He stated the focus is solely on winning Monday night in New York.
