The future of the Spurs backcourt shines in a tough win against the Pelicans: Harper with 22 PTS (10⁄16 FG), 3 REB, 6 AST | Castle’s first return from the injury with 18 PTS, 5 REB, 5 AST
The Spurs survive from the Pelicans comeback as the future backcourt shines in the game. Harper ended up with 22 points on efficient shooting, 3 rebound and 6 assists, including the go-ahead layup down the stretch. Castle in his return from injury after a month shows some rust but continues to play elite defense and good playmaking.
