Even after a win, Mitch Johnson said his team’s floor is too low right now. Nobody on the Spurs disagrees.

The Pelicans say center Yves Missi has been diagnosed with a left knee bone bruise. An MRI confirmed the injury, which occurred as a result of a left knee hyperextension during the second quarter of last night’s game against the Utah Jazz.

The Spurs and Knicks have both lost their first two games of the season. This is only the third time in NBA history that the reigning conference champions both started 0-2 (1979-80 and 1969-70).

Huge block by Amen Thompson to seal a win over the Spurs. Rockets’ locker room was lively after this one: espn.com/nba/story/_/id/5026…

Rockets' Thompson, at 6-foot-7, stuffs Wemby's last-second shot to seal win

Rockets guard Amen Thompson blocked Victor Wembanyama at the rim to prevent a potential game-tying bucket as the Rockets beat the Spurs 114-110.

Rockets looking good tonight. Ball is moving. They’re knocking down the 3 ball. Spurs will be a good/fun test for them.

Rough night for Wemby. But it’s just 1 of 82. espn.com/nba/story/_/id/5023…

Wembanyama starts 0-for-12 in career-worst shooting night: 'Might be overthinking it'

Victor Wembanyama didn't record his first bucket until the end of the third quarter and would finish the night shooting a career-worst 8% from the field as the Thunder got their revenge on the Spurs...

"As a basketball player, I did not feel like myself," Wemby said.

Victor Wembanyama said he was indecisive tonight and felt like he was overthinking things. Felt like that played a major role in his struggles.
