The San Antonio Spurs are headed back to the NBA Finals, and the celebration in South Texas is moving straight from the court to the checkout line.
After San Antonio defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals on Saturday night, Academy Sports + Outdoors confirmed that several stores in and around San Antonio would reopen at 12 a.m. on Sunday, May 31. The late-night openings are aimed at fans looking to buy official Spurs Western Conference Champions shirts and NBA Finals merchandise as soon as it becomes available.
The win ended a 12-year wait for San Antonio, which had not reached the NBA Finals since 2014. It also gave the Spurs another milestone in a fast-changing era led by Victor Wembanyama, whose first Finals appearance is expected to drive strong demand for jerseys, shirts, hats and collectibles.
San Antonio reached the Finals by knocking out the defending NBA champion Thunder in a winner-take-all Game 7. The Spurs will now face the New York Knicks, creating a Finals matchup with history behind it. San Antonio and New York previously met in the 1999 NBA Finals, when the Spurs won the first title in franchise history.
