Spurs defeat the Knicks for the fifth loss in a row, 122-115

 

San Antonio won 122-115 by shooting over 50% for the game and maintaining just enough of a lead over the New York Knicks for most of the game’s last three quarters after taking an early lead. In the fourth quarter, Julius Randle and Immanuel Quickley ignited the Knicks’ late comeback, but Keldon Johnson and Romeo Langford turned back the Knicks’ charge in the last flourish.

 

San Antonio had a great shooting first quarter in which they grabbed a nine-point lead. Neither team had any issue making 3-pointers. The Spurs were able to keep their shooting percentage above 50% for the remainder of the first half.
