It worked on the third attempt: The San Antonio Spurs celebrated a 118: 109 success against the reigning champion Los Angeles Lakers in the National Basketball Association (NBA) on Thursday (local time). Jakob Pöltl contributed three points, six rebounds and two assists. The Viennese worked on the floor for 15:43 minutes.
After the Spurs lost twice to the Lakers in their own hall last week (107: 121 and 103: 109), they almost landed a “start-to-finish victory” at the Staples Center. Apart from the 89:89 equalization one minute before the end of the third quarter, the Texans were always ahead.

“We moved the ball very well and hit our throws, especially in the first half,” Pöltl analyzed. “After they (the Lakers, note) came back in the third quarter, we finished the game with solid performances on both ends.”
