Spurs survive two missed opportunities by Kawhi, win 103-105.

The Spurs recovered well after a rough loss to the Nets, but the score got too close a few times. Thankfully, Kawhi Leonard missed the free throw after tying the game late with a tough layup, and then missed a game-tying 3PT shot to end the contest, earning the Spurs a 2nd win over the Clippers.

Led by Avery Bradley's 18 points with 2 steals, the Spurs were boosted by double-digits from Taurean Prince (16pts, 2-3 3PT), Dejounte Murray (15pts, 3stls) and Timofey Mosgov's 12 points & 13 rebounds with 2 blocks. In the loss, Leonard led LA with 27 points & 6 assists. Paul George dropped 20, with Patrick Beverley's 17 points & 9 assists highlighted by a 3PTer that gave Kawhi the missed chance to steal it.
