In the play of the night, Brandon Ingram called for the ball once again, turned his back to Andrew Wiggins (6 points) and splashed in the fadeaway jumper to ice the clutch victory. Ingram had shot 22% in the first half, recovering well to shoot 71% in the second half, doubling his scoring input from 8 to 16. Kevin Knox, II (19 points) would get a 3PT chance at the buzzer to send the game into OverTime, but missed.
Running the Spurs offense, Dejounte Murray finished with 25 points & 8 assists with 2 steals. Andre Drummond had a quiet night of 8 points, 11 rebounds. It was truly the trio of Murray, VanVleet & Ingram's efficiency that won this game for the Spurs, with little scoring contributions coming from the rest of the team. The Spurs had 7 turnovers to Golden State's 14 which proved crucial, also.
