They were red-hot from three and jumped out to a 38-31 lead in the first quarter. The Spurs fought back by getting to the basket and crushing the Warriors in the paint on their way to a 126-113 win. A 24-8 run in the third quarter tied the game, and then San Antonio finished strong in the fourth, outscoring Golden State 32-19 in the final frame.<\/p>\n
The Spurs were led by their stars. De\u2019Aaron Fox was in control offensively all game, scoring a game-high 27 points on 11-16 shooting, adding 8 assists and 3 steals. Victor Wembanyama was quiet in the first half, but was crucial to San Antonio\u2019s second-half comeback with 26 points, 9 rebounds, and 2 blocks. He was locked in defensively in the fourth quarter and completely disrupted the Warriors\u2019 offensive attack.<\/p>\n
San Antonio outscored the Warriors in the paint 60-42 and grabbed 14 offensive rebounds. The Spurs turned things around with their physicality in the second half, propelling them to victory.<\/p>\n
With Stephen Curry out for the game, Golden State got a vintage performance from Draymond Green, who led the team with 17 points, 12 rebounds, and 8 assists.<\/p>\n
The win extends the Spurs\u2019 winning streak to 6 and improves their record to 38-16. They\u2019ll now get a week off for the All-Star break.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Golden State Warriors came out hot to take advantage of a San Antonio Spurs team on the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":598371,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3786],"tags":[7,479,164,4025,4024,6,52387,52388,255],"class_list":{"0":"post-598370","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-golden-state-warriors","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-golden-state","10":"tag-golden-state-warriors","11":"tag-goldenstate","12":"tag-goldenstatewarriors","13":"tag-nba","14":"tag-spurs-game-recaps","15":"tag-spurs-scores","16":"tag-warriors"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/116056354604426846","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/598370","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=598370"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/598370\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/598371"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=598370"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=598370"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=598370"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
