On Friday, the Texans were missing Pöltl and Jeremy Sochan, Doug McDermott and Josh Richardson, who were also injured. However, the game remained open until late in the third quarter before Zion Williamson took over. The Pelicans power forward, picked first in the 2019 NBA draft, had 30 points and 15 rebounds. He marked 15 points in the third section alone. Devin Vassell was the Spurs’ top scorer with 25 points. Because the Houston Rockets surprised in Phoenix and won 122-121, San Antonio slipped to last place in the Western Conference.
