San Antonio defeated Houston 111–99 on January 28 at Toyota Center, with Victor Wembanyama leading the Spurs' balanced attack with 28 points while De'Aaron Fox added 18. The Spurs' superior efficiency proved decisive: they shot 53.7 percent from the field compared to Houston's 39.4 percent, and their 28 assists to the Rockets' 23 reflected a more cohesive offensive approach. Houston's A. Thompson and K. Durant combined for 49 points but received insufficient support, and the Rockets' fourth-quarter collapse—scoring just 13 points—sealed the outcome well below the 220.5 Vegas total. San Antonio's defense clamped down with a 98.1 defensive rating against Houston's 111.5, while the Spurs' balanced scoring across quarters (26, 28, 30, 27) demonstrated consistency that Houston could not match. Despite San Antonio's 15 turnovers, their offensive rating of 111.5 and rebounding parity (46 boards each) proved sufficient to control the game. The victory strengthens San Antonio's playoff positioning in a competitive Western Conference.
