OUTCOME
CONFIRMED TRUEThe Spurs won Game 4 on May 24, 2026, defeating the Thunder 103-82 — a 21-point margin that comfortably qualifies as an 'easy' win. The Thunder were indeed without Ajay Mitchell (right soleus strain) for Game 4, and Jalen Williams ('JDub') was also out/limited with a hamstring injury. Mitchell had been averaging over 21 points per game as a starter filling in for Williams, consistent with the take's claim of him being a '20-a-game scorer.'
