The Phoenix Suns recorded a 102–98 win against the San Antonio Spurs on October 10, 2026. Luke Kennard spearheaded the Suns' offense, scoring 20 points on 8-of-15 shooting, including 4 three-pointers, while also contributing 5 rebounds and 4 assists over 25 minutes. His efficient shooting from beyond the arc was a key element in the Suns' scoring effort.

Jalen Green supported Kennard with 18 points, 5 assists, and 3 rebounds, hitting 3 of 5 three-point attempts and playing 28 minutes. On the Spurs' side, Victor Wembanyama posted a versatile line with 13 points, 7 rebounds, and 6 assists, adding 2 blocks and a steal in 22 minutes. Dylan Harper added 15 points and 4 assists, shooting 6 of 9 from the field and making his lone three-point attempt.

A telling contrast in the game was the Suns' reliance on Kennard's long-range shooting, as he made 4 three-pointers off 10 attempts, while Wembanyama did not convert any of his 5 three-point attempts for the Spurs. This difference in outside shooting contributed to Phoenix's narrow victory in a closely contested preseason matchup.
