The Spurs survived the Kings 109-107. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Spurs carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. The Spurs rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
