Spurs 102, Hawks 100: Tim Duncan scored 23 points, including the game-winning shot with 0.4 seconds left, and grabbed 21 rebounds to lead host San Antonio over Atlanta.

Boris Diaw added 16 points on 7-of-9 shooting for the Spurs, who recovered from Saturday's loss to Houston and have yet to drop consecutive decisions this season. Tony Parker contributed 15 points and seven assists for San Antonio, while Marco Belinelli chipped in with 13 points off the bench.

Jeff Teague led the offense for the Hawks, scoring 19 points and dishing out seven assists as Atlanta fell for the fifth time in its last six. Al Horford totaled 18 points and grabbed seven rebounds while Paul Millsap went for 15 points and a team-high 14 boards for the Hawks, who shot only five free throw tries in the contest.

San Antonio led 50-49 at halftime, paced by 12 points from Duncan, while DeMarre Carroll led Atlanta with 10 of his 17 points in a half that saw no lead greater than four. After the break, the Hawks used an 11-6 run to take a 60-56 lead midway through the third and pulled away by as many as eight before 10 straight points from the Spurs closed the stanza with San Antonio on top 73-71.

A 3-pointer from Daniel Green staked the Spurs to a 94-87 advantage with 2:53 to play but Atlanta would rally again, capping a 13-6 run on a 3-pointer from Teague to knot the game at 100-100 with 4.7 seconds remaining. Duncan then took a feed from Manu Ginobili and drained the game-winning 16-footer to secure the win for San Antonio.
