Doug McDermott scored a season-best 30 points, undrafted rookie Julian Champagnie had a career-best 26, and the Spurs outscored the Kings 19-11 in overtime for a 142-134 win Sunday.
Doug McDermott scored 22 of his season-high 30 points in the fourth quarter and overtime to help the Spurs beat the Kings 142-134 on Sunday night.SACRAMENTO, Calif. – Veteran Doug McDermott took up where undrafted rookie Julian Champagnie left off in helping the reeling Spurs upset a playoff-bound team.
"I just fed off Julian to be honest," McDermott said."He had it going and saw the ball go in a bunch in the first half and then they gave him a little more attention in the second half and it opened up things for me." "It was a great night for us," said Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, who coached in his first game since learning Saturday he would enter the Basketball Hall of Fame in August as a member of the Class of 2023.
Undrafted rookie Dominick Barlow also had a big night, finished with his first career double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds, both season highs, to go along with two blocks and a steal. "Julian stepped up huge for us," Jones said."He’s been ready every single time his number has been called. He continues to stay ready, continues to work on his game, watches film and everything, asks important questions, and tonight he played big for us throughout the entire game. And Doug is just Doug. He can get it going at anytime. All he needs is one little inch to get it off."1, The defensively challenged Spurs played good 'D' late.
Fox, the NBA's leader in clutch points this season, had the ball in his hands with 15 seconds left in the game and the score tied at 123 after scoring 16 of his team-best 28 points in the fourth quarter.
