San Antonio missed 8 of its first 10 shots in the quarter to fall into a hole from which it would not be able to climb, as Golden State ended the period up 86-70.

The Spurs were without LaMarcus Aldridge for the fourth straight game as the veteran center tries to work his way back from a hip injury. Aldridge received a pain reducing injection in his hip Tuesday and will be re-evaluated in four or five days.

Rookie Devin Vassell started the game for San Antonio and became the first lottery pick selected by the Spurs to do so since Tim Duncan in 1997. He finished with six points and six rebounds in 24 minutes.
