The San Antonio Spurs suffered a narrow defeat against the New York Knicks in Game 2 of the NBA Finals, falling 105-104 and now trailing 2-0 in the series. Victor Wembanyama's late-game turnover proved costly, as he attempted to initiate a fast break instead of running down the clock. With the pressure mounting, NBA reporter Evan Sidery suggests that the Spurs should consider benching De'Aaron Fox in favor of Dylan Harper. Harper, standing at 6-foot-5, offers a more physical defensive presence and has demonstrated better effectiveness alongside Wembanyama. Statistics show that the Spurs outscore opponents by 15.3 points per 100 possessions when Harper is on the court with Wembanyama. Given the urgency of the situation, with the Spurs needing to win three of the next four games to force a Game 7, Sidery believes that starting Harper could spark a much-needed shift for the team. Although the Spurs may be inclined to stick with the veteran Fox, the data suggests that Harper deserves a more significant role in the lineup.
