Utah Jazz guard Patty Mills has given his old coach Gregg Popovich a Halloween night fright but it was Victor Wembanyama who had the last laugh with a rare 5x5 in San Antonio's 106-88 NBA win.
Mills entered Thursday night's (Friday AEDT) game with three minutes remaining in the first quarter and with scores level at 17-17.
The Boomers veteran, who spent 10 seasons under Popovich at the Spurs between 2011-2021, had been struggling in his first season at Utah, averaging less than two points per game.
