Pau Gasol and the Spurs headed to Memphis without their two stars, Kawhi Leonard and Lamarcus Aldridge and Pau Gasol went straight to work.
The Spanish legend came up 1 assist shy of a triple-double finishing with 14 points, 15 boards and 9 assists in a 108-85 win.
Davis Bertans (11 p.), Tony Parker (12 p.) and Joffrey Lauvergne (10 p.) all scored in double-digits for the winning side.
Marc Gasol had 18 points, 7 boards an assist and a steal for Memphis.
The Philadelphia 76ers took care of the Chicago Bulls in a fashionable manner. Rising star, Ben Simons notched his fifth career triple-double while Dario Saric dropped his second straight 22-10 game.
Lauri Markkanen and Nikola Mirotic had 12 and 15 points respectively.
Rudy Gobert helped the Jazz beat the Pistons in overtime. The French center had 15 points, 8 boards and 4 blocks while Ricky Rubio had a double-double, 11 points, 10 rebounds adding 5 assists.
Andre Drummond had a “monster” outing after being snubbed from the all-star team. He finished with 30 points, 23 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals and 6 blocks.
Boban Marjanovic had 4 points, 6 boards, an assists and a steal in 14 minutes for the losing side.
