The Spurs returned home and secured their second win by over 20 points this season. A dominant second half that featured great performances by the young core led to a 119-94 victory that allowed Mitch Johnson to keep the regulars’ minutes low, a godsend considering the matchup against the Hawks on Friday.

NBA trade season unofficially kicked off on Monday , when most players inked to free agent deals over the summer became eligible to be moved. This year, Chicago only has one such player in point guard Tre Jones .
