DeMar DeRozan poured in 23 points and three of his San Antonio teammates scored at least 20 as the Spurs moved a step closer to a spot in the play-in tournament with a 146-125 victory over the visiting Milwaukee Bucks on Monday in a game with major playoff implications for both teams.
The Spurs' win Monday combined with New Orleans' loss to Memphis reduced San Antonio's magic number for clinching at least the 10th spot to just one game. Giannis Antetokounmpo led the Bucks with 28 points, with Khris Middleton adding 23, Jrue Holiday scoring 20, Bobby Portis Jr. hitting for 13 and Brook Lopez and Donte DiVincenzo tallying 12 points each.
San Antonio rolled to a 45-36 lead at the end of the first quarter, scoring 11 of the final 14 points while amassing its most points in the opening quarter of a game this season. The Spurs continued to shoot the lights out in the second period, building their advantage to as many as 24 points before going to halftime up 87-64.
