After three straight games in the NBA Cup playoffs, the Spurs returned home to the ultimate trap game. They were in their own arena he first time since December 2, it was a regular season game with nothing immediate on the line, and they were facing the worst team in the league in the 4-20 Washington Wizards. After sleepwalking a bit through the first half, the Spurs woke up and flipped the switch in the second half, turning a four-point lead into a blowout win, 119-94, allowing the starters to rest most of the fourth quarter since they play again tomorrow in Atlanta.
Dylan Harper led the way with a career-high 24 points, and five other Spurs joined him in double figures. Five Wizards scored in double figures, led by 18 from Alex Sarr and 17 from Bub Carrington.
