In the second night of a back to back and their final contest of a grueling seven game road trip, the San Antonio Spurs fell to the New York Knicks. The Spurs held tough for the first three quarters, but the legs gave out in the final frame as the Knicks took full advantage to pull away and sweep the season series against San Antonio.
The Spurs were still Covid stricken and to make matters worse, back up big, Jock Landale, was ruled out for the game with back spasms. So once again the full defensive attention for the opposition would be on Dejounte Murray.
