Spurs 101, Grizzlies 94: Kawhi Leonard and Boris Diaw scored 14 points apiece as San Antonio opened the season with a victory over visiting Memphis in a rematch of the Western Conference finals.

Tony Parker had 13 points and nine assists, and Manu Ginobli added 12 points, five assists and four rebounds for the Spurs in their first game since narrowly losing to the Miami Heat in the NBA Finals.

After Memphis took a 20-18 lead through a tentative first quarter, San Antonio outscored the Grizzlies 30-7 to take a 48-27 halftime lead. Backup point guard Patty Mills led the charge, going 4-for-4 from the field — including 3-for-3 from 3-point range — to score all 12 of his points in the second quarter.

Duncan left in the third quarter after a collision with Allen, and Memphis closed the period with a 7-2 run to climb within 72-58. The Grizzlies stayed hot to begin the fourth quarter to make it a five-point game with seven minutes to play, but Leonard took a steal the length of the court for a layup to push the lead back to double digits with 3:29 left to play and the Spurs held on from there.
