Coming off a blowout win against the Memphis Grizzlies, the Spurs traveled to Milwaukee to take on the Bucks for the final time this season. Just like the Grizzlies game, the Spurs completely outmatched the depleted Bucks on both ends. After outscoring them 37-24 in the first, they never looked back. They led by as much as 38 points, thanks to dominant performances from Stephon Castle and Victor Wembanyama, alongside the team shooting 40% from three. The Spurs ultimately won wire-to-wire. 127-95.
Stephon Castle dropped his fourth career triple-double: 22 points (9-13 FG), 10 rebounds, and 10 assists. Steph dropped one of the quieter triple-doubles. While the rest of the team was on fire from three, Steph took his time and attacked the paint. He also drained two threes alongside dishing out multiple lobs and diming up open shooters and cutters. He reached nine rebounds early in the fourth, but Mitch Johnson took him out with over seven minutes left. Thankfully, Mitch subbed him back in minutes later, and he grabbed his 10th board. Nonetheless of how he achieved the feat, Steph is a young star who could very well be an all-star next season.

Victor Wembanyama dropped a double-double: 23 points (9-10 FT) and 15 rebounds to go along with six assists, two steals, and a block. Wemby dominated the boards and was dishing out several dimes. As far as his points go, his midrange and three-pointer were not effective, but every time he got into the paint, he was either fouled or he was slamming down lob passes and breakaway dunks. He only recorded one…
