Arvydas Sabonis vs San Antonio Spurs 🔥
This is Sabonis versus the Spurs in 1998. On March 8th, 1998, Arvida Sabonis delivered a dominant performance against one of the NBA’s toughest front courts, David Robinson, and rookie Tim Duncan of the San Antonio Spurs. At 33, Sabonis showed his brilliance with 23 points and 17 rebounds, anchoring the Trailblazers on both ends of the court. From the outset, he attacked the paint, scoring efficiently and using his size and footwork to outmaneuver Robinson. By halftime, he had a double double and continued to control the boards in the second half. Though Portland lost 8278 in a defensive battle, Sabonis outrebounded both Spurs stars and shot nine of 14 from the field. His court vision, toughness, and timing on the glass were key in keeping the game close. Facing two future Hall of Famers, Sabonis didn’t just hold his own, he outshined them. This game remains a prime example of his underrated impact during his NBA tenure.
