On the last day of May 2026, the San Antonio Spurs did what youth so rarely does against experience: they held their nerve when it mattered most, defeating the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder in a decisive Game Seven to earn a place in the NBA Finals. At the center of it all was Victor Wembanyama, a player whose gifts have long been anticipated but are now, unmistakably, arriving. The Spurs will carry this momentum eastward to face the New York Knicks, and with them, a question the sport has not had to ask in some time — are we watching the beginning of something lasting?
