Victor Wembanyama had 27 points, 18 rebounds, six assists and five blocked shots, and the San Antonio Spurs improved to 5-0 for the first time in franchise history by beating the Miami Heat 107-101 on Thursday night.

San Antonio won four straight to open a season on three previous occasions, most recently 2017. The Spurs, Heat and Sacramento Kings were the only franchises never to open a season 5-0.

Bam Adebayo had 31 points, 10 rebounds and three assists for the Heat in a matchup of All-Star centres.

The Heat were without Norman Powell (strained groin), Tyler Herro (ankle), Kasparas Jakucionis (strained groin) and Nikola Jovic (bruised hip), but the depleted roster made a strong push in the fourth quarter before Miami's three-game winning streak was snapped.

The Heat had a 17-1 run in the first 4:35 of the final quarter, with Wembanyama’s second free throw the lone point. The Heat had a 29-20 scoring advantage in the final quarter, but the Spurs closed the game on an 8-3 run to preserve their winning streak.

San Antonio had six players score in double figures, including 21 points from Stephon Castle. Castle added eight assists and six rebounds, and Devin Vassell added 17 points.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 31 points, and the Oklahoma City Thunder improved to 6-0 with a 127-108 victory over the Washington Wizards.

Reserve Ajay Mitchell added 20 points for the Thunder. He made all six of his free throws and has been perfect on 19 attempts from the line this season.

Isaiah Joe, who missed Oklahoma City’s first five games with a knee bruise, also scored 20 points and made five 3-pointers for a team that entered the night last in the league in 3-point percentage at 28.6%.

Oklahoma City forced 22 turnovers and had only six. Cason Wallace led the Thunder with four steals and Alex Caruso had three.

CJ McCollum had 19 points and Bilal Coulibaly added 16 for Washington, which lost its third straight and fell to 1-4.

Washington cut the deficit to 83-81 late in the third, but Oklahoma City closed the quarter on a 9-3 run. A 3-pointer by Jaylin Williams in the final second of the period put the Thunder up 92-84.

Rollins leads Bucks with Antetokounmpo out

Ryan Rollins set a career scoring high for a second straight game with 32 points as the Milwaukee Bucks withstood Giannis Antetokounmpo’s absence to beat the Golden State Warriors 120-110.

Antetokounmpo, who entered Thursday ranked second in the league in scoring (36.3) and rebounding (14.0), was dealing with left knee soreness that had him listed as probable in the Bucks’ injury report. The Bucks announced about an hour before the opening tip that the two-time MVP had been ruled out, and he watched the game from the bench.

Rollins shot 13 of 21 from the floor and 5 of 7 from 3-point range just two nights after scoring 25 points in a 121-111 victory over the New York Knicks. Rollins, who began his NBA career with Golden State in 2022-23, also had eight assists.

Myles Turner added 17 points for the Bucks. Cole Anthony had 16 before fouling out with 7:34 left to lead a Milwaukee bench that outscored Golden State's reserves 38-29.

Stephen Curry scored 27, Jonathan Kuminga 24 and Jimmy Butler 23 for Golden State.

Ryan Rollins was magnificent tonight.
