Highlights:

The San Antonio Spurs opened a tough four games in six nights stretch for the holiday weekend. Their first test came against the red-hot Houston Rockets, where they would need a massive rally to cool off their in-state rivals.

Kawhi Leonard scored 21 points as he helped lead the Spurs rally for a 102-100 win over the Rockets inside the Toyota Center on Tuesday night.

LaMarcus Aldridge added 17 points with 10 rebounds. Patty Mills chipped in 13, including the game-winning three-pointer with 12.9 seconds to play. Pau Gasol had a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds for San Antonio, who won their fifth straight.
