The San Antonio Spurs suffered a 93-105 defeat against the unbeaten Oklahoma City Thunder, marking their third loss this season. Despite the setback, Polish forward Jeremy Sochan continued to shine, recording 17 points, nine rebounds, and four assists, solidifying his role as a consistent scorer early in the season.
Sochan Emerges as Key Player
Jeremy Sochan has taken on a more assertive role with the Spurs, showing increased confidence and shooting more frequently compared to last season. His performance has been a bright spot for the Spurs, who are currently building around young talent, with Sochan often leading the team in scoring across their recent games.
Strong Effort Against an Undefeated Opponent
San Antonio knew they faced a tough challenge against the undefeated Thunder, who quickly established control in the first quarter and held a 15-point lead by halftime. The Spurs fought back in the second half, closing the gap to seven points at one stage, but the Thunder’s defense ultimately proved too strong, maintaining control until the final buzzer.
Next Up: Spurs Face the Utah Jazz
Sochan played over 31 minutes, finishing as the team’s second-highest scorer, just behind Harrison Barnes, who had 18 points. Star rookie Victor Wembanyama, however, struggled, managing only six points and eight rebounds. The Spurs will look to regroup for their upcoming matchup against the Utah Jazz on November 1, hoping for their first win of the season.
