Almost like clockwork, the San Antonio Spurs extended their losing streak to 11 games, falling to the first-place Phoenix Suns in a lopsided matchup that was competitive early but devolved into a massive blowout following a listless 11-point second-quarter effort from the Silver and Black.
Despite another humiliating defeat on their home court, there were some bright spots from the youngsters. Keldon Johnson was in the middle of an all-time shooting slump heading into this contest, but he snapped his cold spell with 27 points while going an efficient 11-of-23 from the field.
San Antonio started the contest on a heater, vaulting ahead 7-0 after Keita Bates-Diop stripped the basketball from Devin Booker and Tre Jones took it coast-to-coast for an uncontested layup.
