A short-handed Spurs team overwhelmed a short-handed Nuggets team to get back in the W column. The Spurs are now 17-0 at home, extending a franchise-best start.
Fresh off a tough loss the night before, the Spurs had no time to hang their heads as they came back to the AT&T Center and made quick work of an overmatched Denver team. Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili had the night off while the Nuggets were without injured key players Emmanuel Mudiay and Danilo Gallinari. Per usual, San Antonio received big contributions all around, leading by double digits most of the way en route to a 101-86 victory.
