San Antonio would have appreciated such a scorching fourth quarter from David West a year ago, but not Wednesday night.
Not when West, last year a Spur but now a Warrior, buried five shots in the fourth — for 15 points total — in Golden State’s 110-98 win over the Spurs in San Antonio, helping keep the Spurs at arm’s length in the second half.
Stephen Curry led Golden State (61-14) with 29 points, followed closely by Klay Thompson’s 23 (four triples), West’s 15 and Andre Iguodala’s 14.
The Spurs (57-17) got a team-best 19 points from Kawhi Leonard — on 7-for-20 shooting — while Lamarcus Aldridge added 17 to complement Danny Green’s 16.
