Duo stars as Spurs romp past Raptors
Print Edition
THE San Antonio Spurs dominated Toronto 110-82 on Tuesday, handing the Raptors their worst defeat of the National Basketball Association season in a clash of elite teams.
Kawhi Leonard scored 25 points and LaMarcus Aldridge added 23 as the Spurs, second in the Western Conference behind the Golden State Warriors, raced to a big first-quarter lead that they wouldn’t relinquish.
Firing on all cylinders on their home floor, the Spurs led by 30 points going into the fourth quarter, which starters Leonard, Aldridge, Tony Parker and Pau Gasol all sat out.
The Spurs, who fell in overtime to the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday, are now 6-1 this season in games after a defeat.
Parker added 15 points and his eight assists matched the total produced by the Raptors.
The Spurs, in contrast, had 32 assists, along with a season-high in blocked shots with 15.
“Any team is dangerous when you move the ball like that,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. “It’s hard to guard when the ball changes sides. You are able to play with open people and shots are more uncontested — and it just multiplies.”
Toronto’s DeMar DeRozan led all scorers with 26 points. Terrance Ross poured in 17, Cory Joseph added 11 points and DeMarre Carroll hit for 10 for the Raptors, who are second in the East behind the Cleveland Cavaliers but were showing signs of fatigue in the final game of a 13-day, six-game road trip.
Elsewhere in the NBA on Tuesday, it was: 76ers 93, Timberwolves 91; Celtics 115, Jazz 104; Pacers 121, Pistons 116; Mavericks 113, Wizards 105; Suns 99, Heat 90; Kings 120, Nuggets 113; and Lakers 116, Grizzlies 102.
