Harper’s scoring was extra valuable because Harrison Barnes remains in a slump (0-for-6 from the floor) and De’Aaron Fox only logged six points in eight shots. It was a good game for the veterans to struggle in, since the opponent wasn’t great. Hopefully, they’ll be sharper against the Hawks and going forward.

Stephon Castle and Dylan Harper led the way, Victor Wembanyama wowed the crowd in his limited minutes, and Jeremy Sochan found his way back on the floor.

Spurs Devin Vassell said, ‘At the end of the day, I want to be bigger than just basketball,' as he hosted a holiday event for San Antonio kids at the Boys & Girls Club.

Giannis Antetokounmpo has become the subject of NBA trade rumors after he scrubbed his social media accounts of nearly all mentions of the Bucks.

The score the rest of the way: Knicks 43, Spurs 21. San Antonio shot 6 for 23 over those final 14 minutes. It got outrebounded 25-8 — a staggering differential. The Knicks outscored the Spurs 18-4 in the paint over that stretch, too.

The first words out of guard Jalen Brunson’s mouth when he was announced as the NBA Cup MVP on-court, postgame ceremony paid tribute to his team’s role players, specifically OG Anunoby, Tyler Kolek, Jordan Clarkson and Mitchell Robinson.

For Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs, simply breaking a six-season playoff drought is no longer considered a lofty enough goal after early success.

El novato Dylan Harper logró 24 puntos, su mayor número de la campaña, y los Spurs de San Antonio tuvieron la ventaja durante todo el encuentro salvo por 22 segundos, para vapulear el jueves 119-94 a los Wizards de Wsahington.
