Spurs Sweep Celtics, Wembanyama Dominates in Boston

The San Antonio Spurs completed a 2-0 season series sweep of the Boston Celtics with a 125-116 victory on Tuesday, March 10, 2026. Victor Wembanyama led the Spurs with 39 points, including 8 three-pointers, and 11 rebounds, continuing to impress despite facing aggressive defense.

Brown Ejected, Celtics Struggle

Boston’s Jaylen Brown was ejected in the second quarter after receiving two technical fouls for arguing with the referees. Derrick White led the Celtics with 34 points, while Jayson Tatum added 24. However, Brown’s absence proved detrimental as the Celtics struggled to contain Wembanyama and the Spurs’ offensive attack.

Wembanyama’s Performance and Spurs’ Surge

Wembanyama’s performance was pivotal, showcasing his ability to score from various spots on the court. De’Aaron Fox contributed 25 points and 9 assists, and Stephon Castle added 18 points and 9 rebounds, providing crucial support. The Spurs closed out the game with a late 19-10 surge, including a 12-0 run, to secure the win.

Game Details and Standings

The Spurs (48-17) now hold a comfortable lead in the Western Conference standings. They are 7.5 games ahead of Houston and Minnesota, 8.5 games ahead of Los Angeles, and 9 games ahead of Denver. The Celtics fell to 43-22 with the loss.

Key Moments

Several key sequences highlighted the game. Devin Vassell’s steal and layup extended the Spurs’ lead late in the fourth quarter. Early in the game, Castle hit a wing three-pointer after Wembanyama blocked a shot.
