San Antonio Spurs at Oklahoma City Thunder

· National Basketball Association
1-3, 0-2 Away
Final
93 - 105

Dort scores 20 points, Holmgren adds 19 as Thunder roll past Spurs 105-93 to remain unbeaten

Thunder's Nikola Topic makes postgame barking debut

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 18 points, and Jalen Williams had 12 points, eight assists and seven rebounds for the Thunder. Oklahoma City has won all four of its games by at least 12 points.

Harrison Barnes scored 18 points, Jeremy Sochan had 17 points and nine rebounds, and Chris Paul added 14 points and nine assists for the Spurs.

San Antonio's Victor Wembanyama was held to six points on 1-for-5 shooting in his matchup with Holmgren, a fellow second-year big man. Wembanyama also had eight rebounds and three blocks.

Takeaways Spurs: Wembanyama is competitive against a team at the Thunder's level, but much of his team isn't. The Spurs shot just 41.2% from the field and struggled to manufacture shots for their young star. San Antonio's 93 points was its lowest total this season.

Thunder: Oklahoma City showed it can handle business when Gilgeous-Alexander's shot is off. Gilgeous-Alexander, one of the league's top scorers with 28.7 points per game through his first three contests, made just 7 of 20 shots, including 2 of 10 from 3.

Key moment The Spurs cut Oklahoma City's lead to 82-75 in the fourth quarter before the Thunder went on a 9-2 run with Gilgeous-Alexander on the bench to regain control of the game. Rookie Ajay Mitchell scored five points during that stretch. The Thunder led 93-81 when Gilgeous-Alexander returned, and Oklahoma City led 103-87 when he went to the bench for good with 2:46 remaining.

Key stat The Thunder made 17 of 41 3-pointers while the Spurs made 12 of 36.

Up next The Spurs visit the Jazz on Thursday, and the Thunder visit the Trail Blazers on Friday.
