Jared McCain delivered a standout performance in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals, scoring a playoff career-high 24 points to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder to a 123-108 victory over the San Antonio Spurs on Friday night. The win gives the Thunder a 2-1 series lead.
McCain, who also contributed four rebounds and three assists, was instrumental in the Thunder's offensive surge. His scoring output surpassed his previous playoff best, showcasing his ability to perform under pressure in a critical postseason matchup.
The Thunder's balanced attack saw additional contributions from key players, but McCain's efficiency from the field and his energy on both ends of the floor were pivotal in securing the home victory. The Spurs, led by their star players, struggled to contain McCain's drives and perimeter shooting.
Game 4 is scheduled for Sunday in Oklahoma City, where the Thunder will look to extend their series lead.
