San Antonio’s hero Tuesday night was the rookie who just weeks ago wasn’t sure where he would play his next game — San Antonio or Austin, in the D-League.
But Dejounte Murray, facing Toronto on the road and starting again in the injured Tony Parker’s place, lofted a high floater to hand the Spurs a 106-104 lead with 1:29 in a frenzied Air Canada Centre.
The Spurs used Murray’s shot and a rebound and free throws from forward Lamarcus Aldridge in the final seconds to close out a 108-106 win over the Raptors.
