The San Antonio Spurs may still be without guard De'Aaron Fox when they face the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 2 of the NBA Western Conference finals series. The game is scheduled for Thursday morning, May 21, 2026 (Philippine time).
Game 1 Victory Without Fox
Despite Fox's absence, the Spurs managed to defeat the Thunder in Game 1 with a double-overtime score of 122-115. The victory showcased the team's depth and resilience against a formidable opponent.
Fox's Injury Status
Fox missed Game 1 due to right ankle soreness, an injury he sustained during the conference semifinals against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He has been undergoing treatment and rehabilitation in hopes of returning to the court.
Before Game 2 begins, the Spurs' medical staff will reassess Fox's condition to determine if he is cleared to play. His availability remains uncertain, and the team is preparing for both scenarios.
The Spurs will rely on their collective effort to maintain their lead in the series, while Thunder will look to bounce back and even the series on their home court.
