After Action Report
The Spurs pulled away from the Rockets 125-109. The Spurs got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Rockets. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
