Patty Mills, getting added playing time for the ailing Tony Parker, turned in a near-perfect game, scoring 18 of his season-high 32 points in the fourth quarter to lead the San Antonio Spurs to a 104-100 victory over the Charlotte Bobcats for their fourth win in five games.
Mills was 10 of 13 from the field, including 5 of 5 in the fourth quarter. Tim Duncan finished with 16 points and 13 rebounds and Nando De Colo tied a career-high with 15 points, including two free throws with 2.4 seconds left to seal the victory.
The red-hot Al Jefferson led the way for the Bobcats with 26 points and nine rebounds. Gerald Henderson had 23 points.
