San Antonio set the tone immediately, outscoring Milwaukee 37-24 in the opening period. The Spurs were sharp offensively from the start, moving the ball cleanly and finishing efficiently to build a double-digit lead.

Second Quarter

San Antonio continued to create quality looks and stayed organized defensively, while Milwaukee struggled to generate consistent offense. The Bucks attempted to lean on perimeter shooting, but the overall execution was not enough to trim the deficit.

Any chance of a sustained Bucks comeback was answered quickly, with the Spurs continuing to score efficiently and maintain control of the pace.

Game Analysis
This game was decided by San Antonio’s efficiency and control. The Spurs made 49 of 89 shots, assisted on 35 baskets, and consistently turned possessions into quality attempts. Wembanyama gave them interior production and rebounding, while Castle’s triple-double reflected how well San Antonio balanced scoring with playmaking.
Milwaukee, by contrast, never found enough offensive rhythm to threaten the lead. The Bucks shot 43.7% from the field and 30.4% from three despite taking 46 attempts from deep. They also got to the free-throw line only six times, which limited easy scoring chances. Even during their best stretch in the third quarter, they could not string together enough stops to make the game competitive.
The rebounding margin was relatively close at 41-37, but San Antonio’s edge in ball movement and shot quality stood out throughout the night. The Spurs led 67-45 at halftime and never let the margin dip into a range that suggested a late swing was coming.
Closing Context
The win moved San Antonio to 56-18, further strengthening its position near the top of the Western Conference race and improving the Spurs to 28-11 on the road. Milwaukee dropped to 29-44 and will look to regroup quickly as the Bucks continue searching for consistency late in the regular season.
