Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs edged Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves in a dramatic 126–123 win that further reshaped the Western Conference race.

The Wolves trailed by as many as 19 points in the third quarter, but they were able to storm all the way back behind a huge night from Donte DiVincenzo. The 'Big Ragu' finished with 19 points on 7 of 16 shooting from the field and 5 of 12 from three-point range.

Anthony Edwards and Victor Wembanyama made their cases for being the next faces of the NBA during a Saturday night thriller between the Minnesota Timberwolves and San Antonio Spurs.

The league's Last Two Minute Report revealed that a foul should have been called on Victor Wembanyama's block with less than a minute to play.

The Spurs took advantage of no Rudy Gobert, who was out with a bruised hip, by attacking the paint for 8 of their first 9 points, but ultimately neither team could find much offense early, with the score sitting at just 10-9 Spurs after six minutes.
