Spurs: The San Antonio Spurs won 135 to 126 in a great performance from Star-Fox and the bench unit against Atlanta! D. Fox had 26 points, 9 assists and 5 rebounds with 3 steals in a steady and very calming effort against the Hawks. The real star of the show was first year Spur D. Jones-Garcia with a stat line of 12 point, 6 assists, 5 rebounds and 3 steals in 18 minutes of action! After shaking off some nerves Jones-Garcia was critical in San Antonio getting the lead and keeping it in the final quarter! K. Johnson also had an amazing game off the bench with 25 points and 7 rebounds! He remains a weapon with whom the Spurs can call upon when the first unit is struggling or going through the motions. J. Champagnie chipped in 20 points and plenty of steady defense as well as J. Sochan 8 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, each player had a few monster slams in the 4th quarter! D. Vassell and K. Olynyk each helped stretch the floor by hitting timely 3 pointers down the stretch! All in all a good team win from the Spurs and something to keep building on as the schedule gets tougher!

Hawks: N. Alaxander-Walker is a player and an awesome pick-up for Atlanta in the offseason. He had 38 points in a loosing effort but was game for the entire match! Getting T. Young back or trading him will help this team focus on what the future holds and help them make a run!
