That’s it for me from Vegas. Time for a breather in a cooler climate.

Back from France, Peter J. Holt, R.C. Buford and Brian Wright are on hand for tonight's game.

Carter Bryant on hand to support his teammates.

Spurs will be without Carter Bryant vs. Bucks tonight after Corliss Williamson indicated he may be done playing here in Vegas. Also, no Tarris Reed Jr., who is out for rest after notching 5 points and 9 rebounds (4 on offensive end) in the 70-49 win over New York on Saturday.

Carter Bryant arrived at the Thomas & Mack Center on Saturday with instructions from his coaches to focus on spreading his wings offensively. He did not disappoint. "I think I showed flashes of what I'm capable of in the future…” the 20-year-old said. www.expressnews.com/sports/spurs...

Carter Bryant on Wemby’s team-building extension decision: “I don't think anybody was surprised on that in terms of the type of person Vic is. He's a winner. So whatever he can do to make the team better, that's what he's going to do every time.”

Carter Bryant on his 19-point, efficient shooting night: “I think I showed flashes of what I'm capable of in the future, but just understanding there's a lot of work I have to do to get to that point if I want to be one of the best players in the world.”

Corliss Williamson indicated that this likely was Carter Bryant’s last game in Vegas: “As of now, we're talking about it. We started off saying he's going to play two games, so he's played two. Second game was a lot better and we saw what we needed to see.”

Carter Bryant follows a 3 with a dunk to hike his team-high scoring total to 19 points.

Much as he did the other night, Bryant is running the offense quite a bit. His mid-range game has been impressive. And he remains vocal whether he's on the court or the bench.

Carter Bryant: 14 points on 5 of 7 from the field and 1 of 1 from 3-point range in 12 minutes.

Hitting 3s, mid-range shots and just a few seconds ago an improbable floater while falling down, Bryant up to a team-high 14 points at the half. Spurs 39, Knicks 17.

Reed just hit the floor chasing a loose ball out of bounds along with Gillespie. Posted a story on it today, but it's worth repeating: Reed's coaches, teammates love how active, physical he is.

As each day passes, Tarris Reed Jr. becomes more popular with his teammates. "I think everybody loves him," fellow rookie Ja'Kobi Gillespie said. Indeed, if the Summer #Spurs had to vote on a team captain, the first-round center might win in a landslide. www.expressnews.com/sports/spurs...

Wemby choosing a team-building extension reminded me of something Devin Vassell said last season: "Vic never comes in and has an ego. He's always worried about the team first and us getting wins and what it takes for us to get wins... "He sets the example."

Wemby's sacrifice gives the Spurs around $51 million worth of financial flexibility over the next five years. It's a smart move for a player eager to win multiple titles because Castle will be eligible for an extension next summer and Harper in 2028. www.expressnews.com/sports/spurs...
