The San Antonio Spurs advanced to the Emirates NBA Cup semifinals by defeating the Los Angeles Lakers, 132-119, and may see Victor Wembanyama return from injury for their upcoming matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Coach Mitch Johnson indicated Wemby had a productive day of workouts and could be ready for Saturday’s game. Despite missing games due to a calf strain, the Spurs have maintained a strong 9-3 record without him. Key contributions came from players like Stephon Castle, who scored 30 points in the quarterfinal victory.
