SAN ANTONIO — The San Antonio Spurs (31-42) will host the Golden State Warriors (42-31) in their season’s final meeting.
GAME REWIND
The Spurs are coming off a 121-111 home loss versus the Celtics, led by Keldon Johnson’s 23 points.
Devin Vassell scored 14 points, and Chris Paul had 12 points and three assists. Stephon Castle finished with 22 and eight assists, and Harrison Barnes recorded 13. Jeremy Sochan added 18 and eight rebounds.
“I thought we did a lot of the hard things tonight. There’s a few times, I think some of the things that we can control, we let our guard down on, which again, you’re not going to be perfect with that stuff when you’re playing that good and doing the hard stuff,” said Mitch Johnson. “That can be frustrating. Just not talking through a situation, getting bogged down with the refs. You’re not already into the next play.”
