The Spurs clinch West Group C in the NBA Cup race with a win in Denver.
SAN ANTONIO — The San Antonio Spurs (12-5) will visit the Denver Nuggets (13-4) and look to win Group C with a win over the Nuggets in the NBA Cup race.
The Spurs are coming off a 115-102 road win against the Blazers. De’Aaron Fox led the team with 37 points (career-high as a Spur) and eight assists.
Keldon Johnson had 11 and 10 rebounds, and Dylan Harper finished with seven in his return to the court after an injury. Devin Vassell scored 23, and Julian Champagnie had 12 and 11 rebounds. Harrison Barnes recorded 13 points, and Luke Kornet added six.
Victor Wembanyama and Stephon Castle did not play due to injury.
“I thought we did a much better job with our discipline pressure. We had a few times, more than a few times in the first three quarters, specifically the first half where just game plan execution stuff,” said Mitch Johnson. “You’re trying to do this and then typically if you take something away in this league, they still have a counter to it and just weren’t participating in our own survival enough in that sense. And we really, really picked it up. Luke (Kornet) picked it up defensively tremendously.”
