Spurs defeat Nuggets 113-106 with Barnes leading and Pickett achieving a triple-double, while Westbrook struggles late.

The San Antonio Spurs secured a thrilling 113-106 victory against the Denver Nuggets on April 2, 2025. Harrison Barnes led the charge for the Spurs, scoring 20 points, while six other players contributed significantly with double-digit scoring. Notably, Jaylen Pickett achieved his first career triple-double, showcasing his versatility with 17 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists.

The Nuggets, despite Russell Westbrook`s impressive 30-point performance, faltered in the fourth quarter, missing crucial shots that could have changed the game`s outcome. The Spurs took advantage of the Nuggets` decision to rest their starters after a loss to Minnesota the previous night, demonstrating their resilience and ability to capitalize on opportunities.

Currently, the Spurs hold a record of 32-44, sitting 17.5 games behind the leaders in their division. In their previous outing, they faced a tough defeat against the Detroit Pistons, losing 122-96, where Devin Vassell led the team with 26 points. The Spurs are set to host the Cleveland Cavaliers next, looking to build on this momentum.
