Spurs vs. Blazers Game 3: Preview, Betting Odds, Injury Report

• Date: Friday, April 24, 2026

• TV/Streaming: Amazon Prime Video

Top Storylines

• The biggest question mark is the availability of Victor Wembanyama. After suffering a concussion in Game 2, his status has been upgraded to "Questionable." While he traveled with the team, his presence changes everything. San Antonio won 81.4 percent of games where they were favored by at least 1.5 points this season, a line that heavily depends on their defensive anchor.
• Blazers guard Scoot Henderson is coming off a massive 31-point performance in Game 2. His ability to navigate the Spurs' physical defense, led by De'Aaron Fox, has been the series' X-factor. If Henderson continues to shoot efficiently (77.7 percent true shooting in the series so far), the Blazers offense becomes significantly harder to tilt.
• With Wembanyama limited or out, the spotlight falls on Luke Kornet to match up against Portland’s duo of Donovan Clingan and Robert Williams III. Portland's interior advantage was key in their Game 2 win.

If Wembanyama is cleared, the Spurs' interior defense likely regains its form. However, Portland’s home crowd and Deni Avdija's consistent scoring threat make the Blazers a dangerous underdog.

In order for the Blazers to pull off a win, they need to rally around their home court advantage much like the Spurs did in Game 1. Whether Wembanyama plays or not, the Blazers have to focus on what they can control.

If they can defend homecourt, they will walk away as the winners of the series with three of the next four games taking place at the Moda Center
