A last-gasp basket from Zion Williamson has allowed the New Orleans Pelicans to survive a scare from lowly San Antonio and run out 114-113 winners on the road.
The Spurs, running last in the NBA's Western Conference, led by as many as 12 points on Saturday (AEDT) as top draft pick Victor Wembanyama (16 points, 14 rebounds) registered his fifth double-double in six games.
San Antonio out-enthused the hot-and-cold Pelicans on the glass at both ends of the floor, but gave up 18 turnovers and found themselves in an 88-all deadlock at the final change.
