Josh Giddey added 19 points with seven rebounds and four assists, while Jalen Williams contributed 17 points.

The San Antonio Spurs (17-49 SU; 27-39 ATS) pulled off a major upset on Friday night, defeating the first-place Denver Nuggets as 12.5-point home underdogs.

Despite being in the running for lottery odds, the Spurs showed no signs of tanking as they claimed their third win in five games.

However, the two losses in that stretch were against the Houston Rockets, the only team below them in the Western Conference standings.

San Antonio shot 54 percent from the field and 13 of 33 from the 3-point line as they got off to a terrible start and allowed 38 points in the first quarter to fall behind by 15 points early, but they poured in 42 points in the second quarter and outpaced the Nuggets in the second half to pull off their best win of the season.

The Spurs will face the Oklahoma City Thunder (31-35 SU; 38-25-3 ATS), who are playing on the second night of a back-to-back after their game in New Orleans last night.

San Antonio could continue their recent good form and make it four wins in six games, or they could opt for a higher draft lottery position with a few more losses. 

  • The San Antonio Spurs are 3-9 SU in their last 12 games at home.
  • The Spurs are 8-2 SU in their last 10 games at home against Oklahoma City. 
  • San Antonio is 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games against an opponent in the Western Conference.
