The Houston Rockets beat the San Antonio Spurs 114-110 in Austin, with Amen Thompson blocking Victor Wembanyama’s game-tying attempt at the rim as time runs out. The stop keeps Houston’s lead and helps finish Houston’s season-opening stretch with a win, while San Antonio drops to 0-2.
Across coverage, the decisive moment is consistently described as a final-second rejection in the lane, preventing a potential tying bucket or layup. Multiple outlets also note Amen Thompson’s overall production, including scoring and rebounding, and identify Fred VanVleet’s two free throws as the closing points after the block.
Other details vary slightly by outlet, such as emphasis on individual storylines. One report highlights Kevin Durant’s statistics and homecoming context, while another frames the game through broader “takeaways,” but all accounts agree on the score, the final play’s impact, and the teams’ early-season records.
