After Action Report
In San Antonio, the Spurs edged the Lakers 105-99. Spurs' offense had its way with the Lakers. The Spurs came in with something to prove after a loss; Spurs' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Spurs rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
