Spurs fail to execute late, lose to Thunder 110-106

Kawhi Leonard recorded a career-high 32 points but his excellent performance wasn't enough to carry the Spurs to a win on their first game of the season.

The LaMarcus Aldridge era started out with a loss, 112-106. The Spurs, which looked brilliant at times and completely lost at others, couldn't hold off the Thunder in the fourth quarter and dropped a game they should have won due to bad late game execution. Kawhi Leonard notched a career-high in points with 32 and played terrific defense on Kevin Durant but it wasn't enough, as Russell Westbrook countered with 33 points and 10 assists.
