The San Antonio Spurs (12 - 4) defeated the Boston Celtics (4 - 10) 111 - 89 on Sunday. San Antonio had five players score in double digits, including Danny Green, who paced the team with 18 points in 35 minutes. Tiago Splitter missed his 14th straight game. Despite Splitter's absence, the Spurs have strung together a seven - game win streak. They'll continue their road trip in Philadelphia on Monday against the Sixers. Boston has dropped four straight and seven of their last eight games. Coach Brad Stevens opted for a change at center to try and mix things up. Kelly Olynyk was moved to a bench role in favor of starting Tyler Zeller. It's unknown if this change is merely to get a point across to Olynyk or if Stevens is considering using Zeller there for the foreseeable future. Zeller put up seven points and 10 rebounds in 23 minutes, while Olynyk put up three points and three rebounds in 25 minutes. The Celtics' next game is on the road in Atlanta on Tuesday against the Hawks.
