The game between the San Antonio Spurs and Sacramento Kings will take place at AT&T Center on Wednesday, February 1 at 8:00 PM ET.
The San Antonio Spurs will welcome the Sacramento Kings to AT&T Center for an NBA game on Wednesday. The Spurs lost 106-127 in their last game over the Wizards. Keldon Johnson had 26 points, Jeremy Sochan added 17 and Zach Collins had 16 for the Spurs, who have lost six straight to fall to 2-13 this month.
San Antonio is 0-35 this season when trailing by double digits. “We had more fast-break points,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. “We had more second-chance points. And we had fewer turnovers. We had more points in the paint but shot 20-something from 3 and they shot 50 or something. Game over.” San Antonio was 7 for 29 on 3-pointers while Washington shot 16 for 30 on 3s.
Avdija responded by scoring 23 points in the final three quarters to help the Wizards win here for the first time since he was 2 years old. “The streak is done,” Avdija said. “Just to close that circle and be here and have a good game versus the Spurs and end that streak. I think everybody did a really great job competing. When we’re focused and sharing the ball, we’re a really dangerous team.”
The Kings on the other hand won 111-118 against the Timberwolves in their last game. De’Aaron Fox scored 32 points and Trey Lyles had eight of his 11 points in overtime for the Sacramento Kings, who outlasted the Minnesota Timberwolves 118-111 on Monday night.
Malik Monk scored 19 points, Domantas Sabonis had 17 points and 13 rebounds before fouling out and Keegan Murray added 13 points and 13 rebounds for the upstart Kings, who produced another signature win in their promising quest to end an NBA-record 16-year absence from the playoffs. The Kings had a season-high 15 steals and turned 18 turnovers by the Timberwolves into 21 points. “It’s just trying to be disruptive. If we get a deflection and it turns into a steal, great,” Fox said.
Lyles took over for Sabonis at center and started overtime with a 3-pointer. He dunked on Rudy Gobert for a three-point play and got wide open for a slam with 37.8 seconds left for a five-point lead that put the game away and gave the Kings a two-game split after a 117-110 loss on Saturday. “Both those games were kind of ugly to our standards, so I thought we did a good job maintaining our composure down the stretch,” Murray said.
