    Clippers recall Travis Leslie from the D-League.
    Leslie hasn’t, and won’t, play significant minutes this season. He was playing for the Bakersfield Jam and will probably be sent back down in a few days.

    Victor Wembanyama finished Wednesday’s loss with 21 points (8-of-16 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), 17 rebounds, six assists, one steal, four blocks and three three-pointers.
    Wembanyama didn’t reach the heights of his outstanding 41-point, 24-rebound double-double in Game 1, but he still managed to finish Game 2 with a strong line. He made half of his shot attempts and was accurate from deep, but his notably lower field-goal and free-throw attempts kept his scoring total down. Still, Wemby dominated the glass and protected the paint well on Wednesday. He and the Spurs will head home with a chance to take a 2-1 series lead on Friday.
    HLs: OKC answers call vs Spurs, ties series at 1-1
    The Spurs would not let OKC get away, but Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder answered the call to close out San Antonio and tie the series at 1-1.
  • OKC Center-Forward #55
    Isaiah Hartenstein tallied 10 points (4-of-8 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), 13 rebounds and three assists in Wednesday’s win over the Spurs.
    Hartenstein had a much better showing on Wednesday after posting two points in 12 minutes in Game 1’s loss. He was rewarded more than double the playing time in Game 2, thanks to solid scoring production and tremendous work on the offensive glass. His contributions were impactful and led to a double-double No. 2 of the postseason. OKC will need more of the same from Hartenstein going forward.
  • OKC Guard #9
    Alex Caruso finished Wednesday’s win over the Spurs with 17 points (5-of-7 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), three rebounds, five assists, one steal and three three-pointers.
    Caruso followed a hot three-point shooting Game 1 with another on Wednesday, as he connected on 75 percent of looks from beyond the arc. The veteran guard also hurt San Antonio’s defense as a playmaker, doing so without committing a turnover. The sharp shooting and savvy playmaking were complemented by sound defense on the other end. As a result, he led the Thunder in plus-minus (+18) and had a massive part in evening up the series at one game apiece.
  • Shai Gilgeous-Alexander tallied 30 points (12-of-24 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), four rebounds, nine assists, one steal and two blocks in Wednesday’s win over the Spurs.
    The MVP had a bounce-back performance on Wednesday after an unspectacular Game 1. He hit his first two shots of the night and proceeded to punish the Spurs’ defense the rest of the way, finishing as the only player to reach the 30-point mark. Gilgeous-Alexander also did a fine job of reading the defense and picking it apart with his passing. He finished just one assist shy of a double-double as the Thunder went on to even the series at one game apiece.
  • OKC Guard-Forward #8
    Jalen Williams (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday’s game against the Spurs.
    Williams left Wednesday’s game after logging just seven first-quarter minutes. He headed to the locker room and never returned to the court, officially finishing with four points and one rebound. Williams’ initial diagnosis is hamstring tightness. After missing most of this postseason previously with a hamstring injury, his status is certainly worth monitoring going forward.
  • SAS Guard #2
    Dylan Harper (leg) will not return on Wednesday vs. Thunder.
    The injury occurred in the third quarter after Harper landed awkwardly. The rookie guard reached for his right leg, was subbed out shortly after the fall, and was eventually ruled out for the rest of the game. He finished with 12 points and three assists in 25 minutes of action.
  • DAL Forward #32
    Cooper Flagg, Kon Knueppel, VJ Edgecombe, Dylan Harper and Cedric Coward were named to the NBA All-Rookie First Team on Wednesday.
    Flagg, Knueppel, and Edgecombe all received 100 first-place votes, with Harper’s 93 votes not far behind. Cedric Coward’s 29 first-place votes were the least of the first-teamers. Meanwhile, Derik Queen, Maxime Raynaud, Jeremiah Fears, Ace Bailey, and Colin Murray-Boyles were named to the All-Rookie Second team.
  • SAS Guard #4
    De’Aaron Fox (ankle) will not play against the Thunder on Wednesday.
    Fox’s ankle injury will cause him to miss a second straight game for a Spurs team looking to take a 2-0 series lead. In Fox’s Game 1 absence, rookie Dylan Harper got the start and amassed an impressive 24/11/6 line, adding seven steals in the victory. He’ll likely remain in the starting lineup on Wednesday.
  • SAS Guard #4
    According to Spurs reporter Tom Orsborn, De’Aaron Fox attended Wednesday’s shootaround, but he did not get up any shots.
    Fox missed Game 1, but with San Antonio already ahead 1-0 in the series, the team could opt to give him some extra rest before the series shifts back to Frost Bank Center for Games 3 and 4. Fox’s absence means more playmaking responsibilities for Stephon Castle and potentially another start for Dylan Harper, who was tremendous in Monday’s double overtime thriller.
  • CLE Center #4
    Evan Mobley finished Tuesday’s loss to the Knicks with 15 points (6-of-16 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), 14 rebounds, three assists, three blocks and two three-pointers.
    Mobley landed a double-double on Tuesday, as he dominated the defensive glass and did a fine job of erasing shot attempts. Yet his shooting struggles from beyond the arc prevented him from delivering a bigger offensive performance, while failing to make the Knicks pay for gifting him open looks. Given his inefficiency from deep in Game 1, there’s a chance those same shots could be there for him to take. He’ll need to step into those looks and capitalize in Game 2 better than he did on Tuesday.
