The San Antonio Spurs did enough to spoil James Harden’s 40-point outing by outlasting the Houston Rockets, 128-114, in NBA preseason at the AT&T Center in Houston.

LaMarcus Aldrige and Dejounte Murray joined forces to led San Antonio with DeMar Derozan sitting out.

The reliable forward had a team-high of 22 points along with six rebounds while the returning Murray finished with 20 points, three assists and four rebounds.

Head coach Greg Popovich and his Spurs squad displayed their well-oiled machine offense as they shot the ball 57 percent compared to only 43 by the Rockets.

They led the entire game with Marco Belinelli and Jakob Poeltl providing the support with 15 and 16 points respectively.

Eric Gordon tried to answer back with his early hot shooting before Harden followed with his offensive outburst. San Antonio, however, remained on track of their game plan to protect the lead until the final buzzer.

Harden flirted for a triple-double with 40 points, seven rebounds and 10 assists in a losing effort. Meanwhile, his counterpart, Russell Westbrook, added 14 points, four rebounds, and four assists as Gordon chipped 14 markers as well.

Canelo Alvarez ex-promoter Eddie Hearns predicts that Terrence Crawford will retire after his victory vs Israil Madrimov last August 3, 2024 in Los Angeles.

Crawford is now the 4-division champ after winning by unanimous decision.

However, Hearns said that three fighters are a must fight against Crawford before hanging his gloves – Vergil Ortiz, Jaron Ennis, and Canelo.

“I don’t think Crawford wants a Boots fight. I don’t think Crawford will fight again unless he fights Canelo Alvarez because he’s got money, he’s getting on [in age],” Hearns revealed.

He added that Crawford ducks Ortiz. He also mocked him for getting lucky with the scoring for his fight against Madrimov.

Hearns underscored that 36 year old Crawford is craving for mega-money, mega-fights, and real legacy fights that is why he does not like to fight the undefeated Ennis. He furthered that 27 year old Ennis is like the young Crawford version that is why he is skipping him.

Meanwhile, Crawford still hates Ennis because he is overrated.
