NOTABLE
The Spurs are coming off a 4-1 road trip that included victories over the L.A. Lakers and Clippers, Minnesota and Oklahoma City. It marked their first trip with at least that many wins since the 2017 rodeo road trip. It was their winningest non-rodeo trip since November 2012.
» Houston has dropped four of five since the start of the new year.
» Two of Walker’s three career 20-point outings have come in the past two games. The 49 points he totaled in the Spurs’ loss to Minnesota and win at OKC are the most the thirdyear guard has amassed in consecutive games in his career.
