NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — D’Angelo Russell and the Nets made sure the Spurs had a miserable time on their trip to New York.
Russell had 23 points, eight assists and seven rebounds, as Brooklyn forced San Antonio into perhaps their worst offensive performance of the season in a 101-85 victory Monday night.
A night after their defense was absent in a loss to the Knicks at MSG, the Spurs crossed into Brooklyn and couldn’t get their offense going. San Antonio was held to its lowest point total of the season, and the NBA’s leading 3-point shooting team was a season-worst 16.
