MINNEAPOLIS -- The San Antonio Spurs' backcourt trio of Stephon Castle, De'Aaron Fox and Dylan Harper proved every bit as lethal Friday as franchise superstar Victor Wembanyama in spearheading a series-clinching 139-109 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 6 of the Western Conference semifinals.
Castle had a game-high 32 points and added 11 rebounds and six assists, helping the trio account for nearly half of the scoring for the Spurs, who finished with the third-most points in a playoff game in franchise history. Fox scored 21 points on 8-of-10 shooting, and Harper added 15 points on 6-of-8 shooting.
San Antonio heads to the Western Conference finals, where it will face Oklahoma City on Monday in Game 1 at Paycom Center.
"What we're walking into on Monday is a different animal," Harper said. "The experience is great for all of us. But we've just got to have the mindset of we're going to keep the foot on the gas no matter what."
