Spurs rout Warriors 123-85, extend win streak to 11
Stephon Castle scored a season-high 32 points as San Antonio improved to 2-0 in NBA Cup group play.

San Antonio beat Golden State 123-85 in Emirates NBA Cup group play Friday for its 11th straight win, while defending champion New York fell to 0-2.
The Spurs never trailed the Warriors, who were without Stephen Curry and fell behind 18-0 within a few minutes of the opening quarter. San Antonio stretched the margin to 43 points in the third quarter. Curry will miss at least two weeks with a right oblique tear, according to USA Today, and sustained the injury in Wednesday's 115-108 loss in Houston, according to The Associated Press.
Stephon Castle scored a season-high 32 points, including five 3-pointers, as the Spurs moved to 2-0 in West Group C. Victor Wembanyama finished with 12 points, 12 rebounds and six assists, while Keldon Johnson scored 18.
Warriors forward Draymond Green received a Flagrant Foul 1 for shoving Wembanyama from behind with his forearm, sending him tumbling out of bounds, and sat out the rest of the first half.

Oklahoma City was playing its third game in four nights and suffered a season-high third consecutive loss. Jared McCain scored 23 points and made a career-high seven 3-pointers.

New York's loss also ended on a missed shot. Indiana earned its first Cup group win, 106-104, with Pascal Siakam scoring 19 and Aaron Nesmith adding 18. Karl-Anthony Towns missed a potential tying 15-footer at the buzzer, The Associated Press reported, and Jalen Brunson paced the Knicks with 33 points.
Miami moved to 2-0 in East Group B by defeating Cleveland 133-121. Bam Adebayo recorded 37 points and 14 rebounds, while Giannis Antetokounmpo, who joined Miami in a trade this past offseason, had 37 points and nine rebounds. It was the second time two Heat players each scored 37 in the same game, after LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, the AP noted.
Davion Mitchell contributed 22 points and matched his career high with 17 assists. Miami has group games remaining against the 76ers and Knicks, according to Sports Illustrated.
Orlando joined Miami at 2-0 after a 107-99 win over Milwaukee, with Franz Wagner recording 35 points and 12 assists for his fourth consecutive game with at least 30 points. The Bucks are 1-12, their worst start in 52 years, according to Sportradar data cited by the AP.
Chicago ended an eight-game losing streak with a 125-117 overtime victory over Atlanta, led by Norman Powell's 33 points. Jalen Johnson registered a triple-double for the Hawks, including 11 rebounds and 10 assists.
Memphis had a franchise-record 10 double-figure scorers in a 142-111 win over New Orleans, with Jerami Grant leading the way at 22 points.
Houston handed Utah its 11th consecutive loss, 125-118, as Alperen Sengun finished with 43 points and 12 rebounds. Portland defeated Sacramento 120-107, getting 34 points from Deni Avdija and 29 from Damian Lillard.
Orlando, Miami and Boston lead the East groups after Friday, while Dallas, Minnesota and San Antonio top the West groups, with all six teams at 2-0. The Spurs and Celtics, who did not play Friday, share the top point differential at +53, and Sports Illustrated projects each as a No. 1 seed if group play ended now.
Four group-stage nights remain before the eight-team knockout bracket.
