Spurs lose to Timberwolves, but win over Thunder, 104-110.

Leonard's defense was tremendous, with a clutch block on Westbrook

The Spurs had a late lead and let it slip away in the Twin Cities, and kudos to the feisty Timberwolves, and they nearly let the OKC Thunder steal this one late, but it wasn't going to happen. Iman Shumpert had a fabulous game, with 22 points and a huge 3PTer to finish off the game-winning comeback by the Spurs.

San Antonio led by double digits twice, including a 10-2 run in the 3rd quarter, but the Thunder kept fighting back on the back of Paul George. It was PG-13, however, that missed a wide open 3PTer in the corner that would've nearly tied the game after a double-clutch 3PTer splashed by Westbrook over two Spurs defenders.

Meanwhile, Kawhi Leonard had a strong block on the OKC superstar to help the rally. Dejounte Murray, Iman Shumpert and Jeremy Lamb frustrated Westbrook all game long, though he finished with a solid line of 26 points and 8 assists. Steven Adams had 16 points and 9 rebounds, showing off a nice hook shot down low. It was Paul George's time to shine, though, with 32 points and 8 rebounds, also 2 steals.

For the Spurs, Leonard had 22 points with a stunning 7 rebounds, 6 steals and 4 blocks. Shumpert nailed four three-pointers in this game, before fouling out late. Pau Gasol had a solid 19 points. Patty Mills didn't start this game, but recovered well with 11 points and 7 assists. Lamb had 9 points; Dejounte had 7 points. Bismack Biyombo withheld the boards from OKC, with 15 rebounds and 5 blocks for good measure, swatting Westbrook and Paul George whenever the ferocious Spurs defense wasn't swarming any OKC Thunder player that drove toward the rim. Westbrook tried a 360 layup and got knocked to the floor for it. Kyle O'Quinn had just 3 points but 4 blocks with 4 rebounds.

Leonard would finish this exciting beat-em-up at the free throw line, going 10-for-10. The Spurs went a fantastic 25-25 from the charity stripe, but it was OKC that missed 10 points there.
