The San Antonio Spurs dropped their fourth straight assignment after being routed by the Golden State Warriors, 148-106, on Sunday.
The Spurs, who gave up the most points to an opponent this season, dropped to 31-43. The Warriors, meanwhile, improved to 43-31, having won seven of their last 10 games.

It was an embarrassing defeat for San Antonio, especially with Spurs legend Tim Duncan in attendance at Frost Bank Center. Duncan, arguably the greatest power forward ever, watched the game with his girlfriend, Vanessa Macias.
It was a rare appearance for the couple, as the 48-year-old Duncan is a notorious introvert. He, however, has always been supportive of the Spurs, which he led to five titles. He even served as an assistant coach in the 2019-20 season.
A picture of the two-time MVP and Macias during the game between San Antonio and Golden State was shared by Courtside Buzz on Instagram and quickly grabbed attention.
“Wasn’t familiar with your game, Mr. Duncan,” said a fan.

“My fault Timmy, I forgot you were a humble giant,” echoed another fan.
“It’s always good to see Tim Duncan 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾” commented a follower.
“One of the greatest to do it. And flew under the radar. Crazy to do it that way. Respect,” wrote a fan.
“My boy brung his girl to his old job 😂😂,” joked another fan.

The 44-year-old Macias is a TV personality, mostly known for her appearance in the hit reality show, “The Amazing Race.” According to a report from Yahoo! Sports, she and Duncan started dating in 2013. They have a daughter.
Duncan, whose jersey was retired by the Spurs in 2016, was formerly married to his college sweetheart, Amy Sherrill. They divorced after 12 years. Not much is known about their separation.
