It was a great team effort.&quot;San Antonio looked to be cruising after a fast start, outscoring Houston 39-28 in the first quarter before taking a 70-60 half-time lead.But the Spurs&#x27; shooting accuracy evaporated in the fourth quarter as they made only 7-of-28 from the field, and failed to make a single three-pointer from 13 attempts.Julian Champagnie led San Antonio&#x27;s scoring with 27 points, while Victor Wembanyama and De&#x27;Aaron Fox added 14 points apiece.In other games on Tuesday, the Chicago Bulls unleashed 25 three-pointers in a 138-110 home rout of the Los Angeles Clippers, Coby White leading the scorers with 27 points.In Salt Lake City, Keyonte George scored 43 points to upstage a 38-point display from Anthony Edwards as the lowly Utah Jazz upset the Minnesota Timberwolves 127-122.
