SPURS
Coach Gregg Popovich:
"Good win on the road, long trip, back-to-back on the road. Down 11 (points) with five and a half to go, I got to be really by happy for them. Some good examples that the NBA, it is a 48-minute game and you keep playing. On a positive note, it's a good example for them. Really pleased for them."
Sochan:
"We just locked in. Became more aggressive. Those were the two things that helped us to get in the tight game and take the knee."
Wembanyama:
"Playing as a team again. I think we were slow. My legs were heavy tonight. I could really feel the shift from all of my teammates, me included, in the fourth quarter and it really worked. Everyone was involved. Getting some stops. Jeremy (Sochan) had a big role."
