Video shared from the 2026 NBA Finals shows San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama taking part in a pregame moment involving nuns who have become known courtside during the team’s run to the Finals. Multiple outlets report that the Salesian Sisters of St. John Bosco—described as “Spurs nuns” and fixtures near the court—were present ahead of Game 1. In the viral clip, Wembanyama interacts with the sisters in a pregame setting, which is portrayed as a prayer or traditional pregame gesture.
Both reports identify the same religious group as the courtside presence and frame the moment as a surprise, widely circulated video among fans. The coverage focuses on the appearance of the sisters during the Spurs’ Finals run and the fact that the star and the sisters share the moment publicly on the court before play. The reports do not conflict on the identities involved or the general timing of the video, describing it as occurring before Game 1 of the Finals.
