SAN ANTONIO — The San Antonio Spurs (14-51) will host the Houston Rockets (29-35). This will be the Spurs' second game of an eight-game homestand.
GAME REWIND
The Spurs are coming off a home loss versus the Warriors, 112-102.
Victor Wembanyama finished with 27 points and 14 rebounds. Malaki Branham scored two points and one rebound, and Zach Collins added 10. Devin Vassell had 17 points in the loss, Keldon Johnson added 16, and Jeremy Sochan chipped in with nine points.
“When you lose, oftentimes you do a few things poorly. If you win, you do more things well and you have a chance to win. If they had a 30-6 run, we probably did some pretty bad things during that period. You can just guess, write down whatever you want. It’s a simple game," Gregg Popovich said. "You turn it over, you miss shots, they make shots. Your defense sags, maybe you don’t rebound. It’s all of the above. It’s no secret. So, to say, ‘What went wrong?’ doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. All those things went wrong and then you lose the game.”
