Spurs down Jazz for second time in a week, win fifth straight
The San Antonio Spurs continued their three-game homestand on Monday night and used two strong quarters to put away the Utah Jazz, earning the 119-97 win at the Frost Bank Center. The win is the fifth straight for San Antonio, who defeated the Jazz for the second time in nearly a week.
San Antonio set the tone from the opening tip, being aggressive by slicing into the paint at every chance and using their signature ball movement to find the open man for a shot. Defensively, the Spurs put together their best quarter of the season so far, holding Utah to 16 points, the lowest they’ve allowed in the first quarter this season, and 27 percent shooting.
