马刺队以1胜1负的战绩结束了I-35系列赛。
在传来关于维克托·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama)令人心碎的消息，以及周四艰难战胜菲尼克斯太阳队之后，马刺队回到了奥斯汀的穆迪中心，进行I-35系列赛第二幕，对阵底特律活塞队。第一节落后13分后，马刺队奋力反击，在第二节取得领先。他们甚至保持了54-47的领先优势，直到活塞队开始了自己的反击，以一分的优势进入半场。活塞队在第三节以16-2开局，马刺队再也没有接近过。活塞队在这一节以38-18击败了马刺队，最终以125-110获胜。
凯尔登·约翰逊(Keldon Johnson)替补出场，以28分（13投11中）、5次助攻和4个篮板领衔全队。似乎在奥斯汀打球，能够解锁凯尔登的野兽模式。从在奥斯汀马刺队开始，到成为在奥斯汀得分最多的NBA球员（103分），他简直判若两人。
加一！凯尔登在冲击篮筐时势不可挡，包括这次在凯德·坎宁安(Cade Cunningham)头上的强硬加一！

达龙·福克斯(De’Aaron Fox)延续了他的得分爆发，贡献了27分（18投11中）、5次助攻、5个篮板和4次抢断。由于 文班亚马 赛季报销，马刺队将不得不依靠他的得分来维持竞争力，以期获得一个附加赛席位。试想一下，如果他们没有交易得到福克斯，这支球队会是什么样子。

斯蒂芬·卡斯尔(Stephon Castle)替补出场仅13分钟，就贡献了12分、3个篮板、2次抢断和1次助攻。这位最终的年度最佳新秀的出场时间不足，确实令人困惑。尽管如此，卡斯尔继续展示着他为何能赢得新秀挑战赛MVP。

桑德罗·马穆克拉什维利(Sandro Mamukelashvili)贡献了10分、7个篮板、2次助攻、2次抢断和1次盖帽。他的能量点燃了第二节的反击，甚至贡献了扳平比分的进球！

这场比赛的关键在于：活塞队以53-32在篮板球上击败了马刺队。尽管拥有两名盖帽中锋，但米奇·约翰逊(Mitch Johnson)选择在大部分时间里继续让索汉担任中锋。这支球队需要在未来两周内决定，他们是争夺附加赛席位，还是摆烂。此外，他们需要决定是否值得将克里斯·保罗放在比培养斯蒂芬·卡斯尔更优先的位置上。
最后，这里是完整的比赛集锦。
马刺队将于本周日下午6:00（中部时间）在FDSN-SW上，在冰沙国王中心对阵新奥尔良鹈鹕队。

Spurs Highlights: Fox and Johnson drop 53 on the Pistons
The Spurs close out the I-35 Series by going 1-1.
Coming off heartbreaking news about Victor Wembanyama and a tough win against the Phoenix Suns on Thursday, the Spurs returned to Austin’s Moody Center for Act II of the I-35 Series against the Detroit Pistons. After falling behind by 13 in the first quarter, the Spurs clawed back to take the lead in the second quarter. They even held a 54-47 lead until the Pistons started a run of their own to take a one-point lead into halftime. The Pistons then opened up the third with a 16-2 run, and the Spurs never got close again. The Pistons outscored the Spurs 38-18 in the quarter and eventually won 125-110.
Keldon Johnson led the team with 28 points (11-13 FG), five assists, and four rebounds off the bench. There’s something about playing in Austin that unlocks Keldon’s beast mode. From starting with the Austin Spurs to having the most points in Austin for an NBA player (103), he’s a different animal.
AND-ONE! Keldon was unstoppable driving to the cup, including this tough and-one finish over Cade Cunningham!

De’Aaron Fox kept up his scoring burst with 27 points (11-18 FG), five assists, five rebounds, and four steals. With Wemby out for the season, the Spurs are going to have to rely on his scoring to keep them afloat for a hopeful play-in spot. Just imagine where this team would be if they hadn’t traded for him.
On the board with an OOP! Fox receives the handoff from Chris Paul and throws a beautiful lob to Bismack Biyombo who slams it home!

Stephon Castle dropped 12 points, three rebounds, two steals, and an assist in only 13 minutes off the bench. The lack of playing time for the eventual ROTY is certainly confusing. Nonetheless, Castle continues to show why he won the Rising Stars Game MVP.
WHAT A SHOT! Castle fights through the defense and is able to put up a shot to beat the first quarter buzzer!

Sandro Mamukelashvili dropped 10 points, seven rebounds, two assists, two steals, and a block. His energy sparked a comeback in the second, and he even provided the game-tying bucket!

The bottom line of this game: The Pistons outrebounded the Spurs 53-32. Despite having two shot-blocking centers, Mitch Johnson elected to keep playing Jeremy Sochan at center for the majority of the minutes. This team needs to decide within the next two weeks if they are competing for a play-in spot, or tanking. Also, they need to decide if it’s worth putting Chris Paul as a priority over developing Steph Castle.
Finally, here are the full game highlights.
