SAN ANTONIO — Marco Belinelli scored 20 points, Tim Duncan had 13 points and 10 rebounds, and the San Antonio Spurs rolled to a 123-101 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday night.

San Antonio had seven players in double figures, including 18 points each from Kawhi Leonard and Cory Joseph, and 17 from Boris Diaw.

The Spurs (15-5) had a season-high 30 assists in winning their 10th in the past 11 games and fifth straight at home.

Zach LaVine had 22 points and Shabazz Muhammad added 20 for Minnesota (4-15), which has lost five straight.

Thaddeus Young's 18-footer on the game's opening possession gave the injury-depleted Timberwolves their only lead of the game.
