The Spurs lost this game early on, as the Suns outscored them by 25 in the second quarter with superiority in the paint and accurate shooting to take advantage of the short-handed Spurs lineup. The absence of Jakob Poeltl inside and foul trouble for Zach Collins and Charles Bassey left the Spurs vulnerable to DeAndre Ayton’s length and improving ability to pass that made this game a Bambi vs Godzilla level mismatch. Devin Booker and the rest of the Suns did their part for the Suns, hitting wide the wide open three-points the Spurs were giving them by trying to double team Ayton, but it was the superior interior play which broke the game open for Phoenix and doomed the hapless Spurs to their 11th straight loss.
