Spurs Summer League Recap: Spurs & Raptors Share Title

From the Las Vegas Review-Journal:
The Toronto Raptors and San Antonio Spurs were the only teams to go undefeated and shared the title with 5-0 records.

"I'm sure Pops (Spurs head coach Greg Popovich) will say, 'What the hell are you doing? We're not supposed to win the Summer League,'" Spurs Summer League coach Mike Budenholzer said. "We told them at the start of the week that winning and losing wasn't important. But I think they felt it was important and it's a tribute to them and how hard they worked."

The Raptors, who have been coming to Las Vegas the past three years, went 1-4 in 2008 and 3-2 in 2009. The Spurs had their best showing in four years of participating. Their previous best was last year's 3-2 record.

At the opposite end of the spectrum, the Lakers and Hornets went winless at 0-5.
Here is how the Spurs' summer league games went down:
