Victor Wembanyama stated that the San Antonio Spurs have moved on from their significant collapse in game four of the NBA Finals. The Spurs blew a 29-point lead, losing 107-106 to the New York Knicks. With the Spurs trailing 3-1 in the best-of-seven series, Wembanyama emphasized the need to be ready for game five on Saturday. Head coach Mitch Johnson acknowledged concerns about player fatigue, particularly for Wembanyama, who played 44 minutes. Despite this, Wembanyama expressed confidence that fatigue will not affect their performance as the Spurs attempt to extend the series.
