The San Antonio Spurs played without All-Star LaMarcus Aldridge on Tuesday night against the Houston Rockets, yet the team was able to fight hard and force overtime through a thrilling sequence of events from second-year guard Lonnie Walker and big man Jakob Poeltl.

As you can see on the video, Walker drilled the pull-up triple from way downtown and Poeltl helped to protect the tie with a rather easy-looking block on scoring machine James Harden.
The Spurs needed a valiant effort in order to force overtime, as they were down by as many as 22 points to Houston in the contest.
San Antonio fought back at long last in the fourth quarter, when they ultimately led by five points. However, they were unable to hold off the scoring of big names such as Harden and Russell Westbrook, as well as big games from Clint Capela and Austin Rivers.
