The Spurs and Suns really embraced the spooky season on Tuesday night ahead of their matchup.
San Antonio’s Victor Wembanyama Devonte’ Graham and Phoenix’s Damion Lee all got into the Halloween spirit as they arrived at Footprint Center decked out in creative costumes.
Lee took the cake as he showed up to the arena dressed as an injured Aaron Rodgers which came complete with a headset, crutches, playsheet, and football.
It should be noted that Lee underwent meniscus repair surgery for his right knee and is out for at least a month for the Suns so his costume was easy to pull off. The injured Phoenix player should certainly get an award for most creative costume in the arena.
As for the Spurs-Suns game, the San Antonio Spurs saw themselves down as much as 20 only for them to come back and win. Down three points with 10 seconds left in the game, Spurs rookie sensation Victor Wembanyama cleaned up a missed three-point attempt with a dunk. The inbounded the ball to Kevin Durant as everybody waited for him to be fouled but he was immediately double-teamed and coughed up the ball. Keldon Johnson took the ball from Durant and drove to the basket, scoring the go-ahead layup with 1.2 seconds remaining.
San Antonio won the game 115-114.
