LAS VEGAS - Thunder second year forward Josh Hall sized up his defender on the right wing. With a quick in and out move, Hall got a step on his San Antonio opponent. Two strides later, the North Carolina native was soaring above the rim as he jammed home a one-handed dunk.
On the sidelines, the Thunder bench leaped to their feet in excitement, hyping up their teammate who just rattled the goal. Even with a comfortable 20-plus point lead with less than two minutes in the fourth quarter, the Thunder’s energy both on and off the floor buzzed at a high level on the way to a commanding 116-91 win over the Spurs.
