The shorthanded San Antonio Spurs dropped a thriller versus the Phoenix Suns as they fell short of an improbable upset on the road. A mishmash of spot starters, reserves, and third-stringers pushed them out in front early in the first half, but in an all-too-familiar twist, the good guys couldn’t seal the deal when the game came down to crunch time.
The Silver and Black will have a shot to redeem themselves as they open a three-game homestand against the Golden State Warriors. Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Andre Wiggins, and Jordan Poole make for a formidable quartet of scorers.
