The San Antonio Spurs took care of the visiting New Orleans Pelicans in a 98 - 79 win at AT & T Center on Saturday . San Antonio ( 30 ) came into this game as a huge favorite and they did n't disappoint against a struggling New Orleans ( 0 - 3 ) team . The Spurs led by 10 at the half and extended that lead to 23 headed into the fourth quarter . Defense was key for San Antonio , as they held New Orleans to 37 percent from the field and 17 percent from three - point range . The Pelicans were held to just 34 points in the second half , as they had to play this game in the back end of a back - to - back set . Anthony Davis was averaging nearly 50 points and 15 rebounds in his first two games , but struggled against an elite Spurs defense . Davis was held to 18 points and five rebounds on 6 - for - 15 shooting in the loss . E'Twaun Moore tied the team - lead with 18 points of his own . No other player scored in double figures for the Pelicans , as the other three starters combined for just 10 points . The bench did combine for 29 points and 25 rebounds , but most of that came in garbage time . Kawhi Leonard continued his torrid start , as he scored 22 points in just 27 minutes of play . He actually scored 16 of those points in the third quarter , which is a career - high for a single quarter for Leonard . Patty Mills started for Tony Parker and finished second on the team with 18 points and five assists . The only other starter in double figures was LaMarcus Aldridge , who totaled 12 points and six boards . San Antonio will hop on a plane to travel to Miami for a game on Sunday . It would n't be a surprise to see Gregg Popovich rest some starters in that sort of circumstance with his history . New Orleans is off until Tuesday , when they host the Milwaukee Bucks . San Antonio carried over its No . 1 defense from last season , holding the Pelicans to 37 percent shooting from the field and 17 percent from three - point range Saturday . They continue to succeed with Pau Gasol struggling , as he has played 21 minutes or less for the third - straight game . After averaging 48 points and 17 rebounds per game , the Spurs held Anthony Davis to just 18 points and five rebounds in this blowout victory . Patty Mills and E'Twuan Moore were the only two starters in this game to shoot over 50 percent from the field . Three-point shooting was a huge factor for San Antonio , as they went 10 - for - 24 , while holding New Orleans to 4 - for - 23 from long distance . New Orleans was one of the worst road teams in the league last year going 9 - 32 , while the Spurs were the best home team , with a 40 - 1 record .
