The Spurs dropped their season finale against Phoenix, 121-123, as the shorthanded Suns rode their white-hot second unit to victory, extending San Antonio’s losing streak to four games.
DeMar DeRozan led the Silver and Black with 23 points and four assists. But 22 points from E’Twaun Moore, 19 from Cameron Payne, and a near triple-double from Jevon Carter were too much to overcome.
Observations
- The Spurs gave Patty Mills a day off for the first time since April 22, and with as worn out as the high-scoring sixth man has looked over the last few months, this could be just what he needs as San Antonio prepares for a matchup with the Grizzlies or Warriors on Wednesday.
