The Brooklyn Nets (0-2) had a bounceback performance in their home-opener against the Cleveland Cavaliers compared to their season-opener at the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday. However, Brooklyn is still looking for its first win of the season and up next on their schedule is Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs (2-0) and if you’re wondering how you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place!
The Nets are coming off a 131-124 loss on Friday to the aforementioned Cavaliers, a game in which Brooklyn trailed by as many as 25 points before making the game interesting in the fourth quarter. Guard Cam Thomas led the way for the Nets to the tune of 33 points and nine assists while forward Michael Porter Jr. did his part with 31 points, eight rebounds, and three assists of his own.
The Spurs enter this matchup following a 120-116 overtime win at the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday in which Wembanyama put on another show to begin the season with 29 points, 11 rebounds, and nine blocks. San Antonio is dealing with some injuries at this point in the season, but the team is still getting solid contributions from players like Devin Vassell (23 points) and Stephon Castle (16 points).
