Gregg Popovich sits atop the NBA’s career chart for regular-season coaching wins after the Spurs downed the Utah Jazz 104-102 Friday night at the AT&T Center.

“They know how much I enjoy that sort of thing,” Popovich said. “I’m going to bring them all in and have them run suicides before the game tomorrow.”

Playing the entire fourth quarter, Murray scored 15 points on 5 of 8 from the floor and 5 of 6 from the free-throw line in the frame. The Spurs, who entered the game 0-34 this season when trailing after three quarters, entered the fourth down 10. Utah went up by 15 — it’s biggest lead of the game — when former Spur Rudy Gay drilled a 3-pointer with 10:02 left.

After fighting their way back into it, the Spurs won it with clutch free throw shooting. Murray sank three in the final 4.8 including his final one with 1 second left that lifted the Spurs to the lead by the final score after Gay sank another 3 with 2.0 seconds left.San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich celebrates Friday, Mar 11, 2022 at the AT&T Center in San Antonio with San Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poeltl after the Spurs beat the Utah Jazz 104-102.
