Spurs guard Dylan Harper faces a game‑time decision for Game 3 of the Western Conference finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder. An MRI on Thursday confirmed a right adductor injury, sustained in the third quarter of Game 2 when a blocked layup attempt forced him out. Harper will run his pre‑game routine before coaches announce his status. Coach Gregg Popovich will make the final call.

The Spurs’ backcourt is already thin. Veteran guard De'Aaron Fox remains listed as questionable with a right ankle sprain, while only Stephon Castle and Jordan McLaughlin are confirmed healthy after the 112‑108 loss in Game 2. Both players average near 19 points per game this postseason. If both Harper and Fox return, San Antonio gains critical depth that could alter the series momentum.

San Antonio entered the finals with only two reliable guards, and losing either could force a reliance on bench players like Carter Bryant. Harper’s injury, which forced his exit at the 4:50 mark of the second quarter, underscores the team’s vulnerability. The decision Thursday night will determine whether the Spurs can field a viable lineup for Game 3. A win without them would be a testament to the bench.
