Spurs open 2017 with overtime loss in Atlanta

Highlights:

A new year marks a clean slate and a fresh start. Unfortunately for the San Antonio Spurs, old problems still lingered as a calendar turned over into a new year on Sunday.

LaMarcus Aldridge scored 27 points, but it was not enough as the Spurs fell 114-112 to the Atlanta Hawks inside Phillips Arena on New Years Day, falling on the road for just the third time this season.

Tony Parker added 22 points and Kawhi Leonard returned after missing two games to score 13 for San Antonio. The Spurs had their four game win streak snapped with the loss.
