After Action Report
In San Antonio, the Spurs snuck past the Magic 90-89. Ugly basketball, but the Spurs did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Spurs; the Spurs carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. Early returns: the Spurs per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
