In the second game of a three-game road trip, the San Antonio Spurs took a 19-point loss to the Brooklyn Nets. It was an ugly game from the jump—so ugly that we’re not even going to talk about the middle of the game itself.
Instead, we’ll focus on the glimmer of light in the midst of a rough night, which was the rookie debut of Luka Samanic and the second game of guard Quinndary Weatherspoon in the fourth quarter of the contest. Furthermore, rookie wing Keldon Johnson logged a career-high 21 minutes and showed off his dazzling skill set in the process.
