Spurs to face Trail Blazers after victory over Sacramento Kings

The San Antonio Spurs travel to face the Portland Trail Blazers on November 7, 2026, at 9:00 PM CT, following a dominant victory over the Sacramento Kings just a night prior. The contest is the second leg of a back-to-back set for the Spurs, who maintained control throughout the second half of their previous matchup to secure a 15-point win. Despite the final margin, the Silver and Black significantly out-talented the Sacramento squad throughout the second half.

Wembanyama Avoids Injury Report After Sacramento Win

In the win against Sacramento, Victor Wembanyama delivered a dominant performance, supported by 19-point contributions from Devin Vassell, Stephon Castle, and Ron Harper. Despite a reckless closeout by Domantas Sabonis that caused Wembanyama to turn his ankle during the first half, the star center is not listed on the injury report for the game against Portland. While the Spurs secured the victory, the team continues to face a bench production deficit, with the Kings’ reserves outscoring the Spurs’ bench 35-20. This disparity forced acting head coach Mitch Johnson to play Wembanyama for 26 minutes and other starters for approximately 28 minutes, though the team is expected to be sufficiently rested for the Portland Trail Blazers. Fans remain watchful regarding whether Wembanyama is hampered by the physical toll he has taken this season.

Blazers Face Spurs Following Lakers Loss

The Trail Blazers enter the game following a 124-118 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. Portland’s roster is largely at full strength, with the notable exceptions of Ja Morant, who is sidelined with a hamstring strain, and Robert Williams, who is resting on the second night of a back-to-back. The Blazers are expected to start a backcourt featuring Damian Lillard and Scoot Henderson. The Spurs must contend with Deni Avdija, who historically scores well against San Antonio and logged nearly 39 minutes in the previous loss, and the interior size of Donovan Clingan. The game will be available for viewing via DAZN and League Pass. Robert Williams, known as “Time Lord,” jokingly encountered his teammate Damian Lillard, the “master of Dame time,” while attempting to use his Tardis to secure extra rest.
