The MVP looked like the MVP again, and the Western Conference finals are knotted up.Shai Gilgeous-Alexander bounced back from a subpar series opener to score 30 points, Alex Caruso added 17 off the bench and the Oklahoma City Thunder beat the San Antonio Spurs 122-113 on Wednesday night in Game 2.Chet Holmgren scored 13 points and reserves Jared McCain and Cason Wallace each had 12 for Oklahoma City. The Thunder finished with a 57-25 edge in bench scoring, plus a 27-10 advantage in points off turnovers.I thought we all played better, Thunder coach Mark Daigneault said. I had a quiet confidence about that. I didn't know if we'd win or lose the game, but I was pretty sure after watching Game 1 and knowing our team that we were going to come out and play better tonight.Stephon Castle scored 25 points for the Spurs, who got 22 points from Devin Vassell and a 21-point, 17-rebound, six-assist, four-block night from Victor Wembanyama.Game 3 is Friday in San Antonio.The guys brought it tonight, Gilgeous-Alexander said. Knowing what it would have meant if we lost this one, we brought the energy from the jump.Isaiah Hartenstein who barely played in Game 1 had 10 points and 13 rebounds for the Thunder, who improved to 14-5 after a loss this season and beat the Spurs for just the second time in seven meetings.The win was not without cost for the Thunder, who lost guard Jalen Williams who had already missed six games in these playoffs with a left hamstring strain in the first half with a recurrence of the hamstring issue. The Thunder said it was tightness, but even that would figure to put his availability for Friday into doubt.And the Spurs got banged up as well. Already without All-Star guard De'Aaron Fox because of ankle soreness, San Antonio lost his replacement in the starting lineup Dylan Harper to a right leg injury after he took a couple of awkward falls in the third quarter.Spurs coach Mitch Johnson had no update on Harper after the game, though he noted that it puts a ton of pressure on others when his team is down two guards.Obviously this team is as good as anybody at turning you over, so when youre down some of your primary creators and initiators it causes a little bit of an extra strain, whether thats who to play, what to play, what to run, etc., etc., Johnson said. Well just have to be sharper in that area because its tough fully loaded against these guys.San Antonio was down by 11 at the half and trailed by eight going into the fourth quarter, then got within 99-97 off a corner 3-pointer by Harrison Barnes with 9:06 left.The next 2 1/2 minutes saved the Thunder. An 11-0 run by the defending champions including a banked-in 3-pointer by McCain midway through the burst pushed OKC's lead to 13.But the Spurs on another night when turnovers plagued them and the stretch run was played without Fox and Harper were far from done. Wembanyama scored down low to make it 118-113 with 1:25 remaining, but Gilgeous-Alexander got one last basket to settle things down and send the series to San Antonio tied.We've got to help our ballhandlers more and take care of the ball, Wembanyama said.___AP NBA: https://apnews.com/nba

Thunder guard Jalen Williams, who missed six games earlier in these playoffs with a strained left hamstring, was ruled out for the second half of Game 2 of Oklahoma City's matchup against the San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference finals on Wednesday night.The reason: Another hamstring problem, which the Thunder called tightness.Williams appeared to be getting treatment on the hamstring during the first half, then left the bench area and did not play in the second quarter. Television footage showed him walking toward the locker room holding a large wrap on the back of his left leg.Cason Wallace started the second half in Williams' place, and the Thunder announced that Williams wouldn't return not long afterward. Thunder coach Mark Daigneault said Williams would be evaluated on Thursday.Hes going to get checked out," Daigneault said after Oklahoma City's 122-113 win that evened the series at a game apiece. "I dont deal in like hypotheticals, especially when doctors are involved. ... We'll see where hes at. Well update him accordingly.Williams returned for Game 1 of the Spurs' series, scoring 26 points in 37 minutes on Monday night in Oklahoma City's 122-115 double-overtime loss. He had four points in seven first-quarter minutes Wednesday, including an alley-oop dunk with 2:12 left in the period.Game 3 of the series is Friday in San Antonio.Williams missed 55 of the Thunders first 91 games this season entering Wednesday, including playoffs. Of those absences, 19 were for a right wrist issue and the other 36 were related to his hamstrings the right one costing him 30 games during the regular season, the left one costing him the most recent six during the playoffs.Obviously, if we dont have him, it hurts," Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander said after the game. I still believe in this team though. We've played a bunch of games without him, won big games without him. I still think well get the job done. But losing a guy ... no matter how good your team is otherwise it hurts a little bit. And for him, just like as a human being, hes had a tough year with injuries.___AP NBA: https://apnews.com/hub/nba
