SAN ANTONIO (AP) - Kawhi Leonard had 20 points and the San Antonio Spurs wore down the short-handed Los Angeles Clippers 108-87 on Tuesday night to match the second-longest home winning streak to open a season in NBA history.

San Antonio won its 33rd straight home game this season, tying Orlando's start to the 1995-1996 season.

LaMarcus Aldridge added 17 points and reserve guards Patty Mills and Manu Ginobili added 15 points and 13 points, respectively, for the Spurs (57-10).

Los Angeles (42-24), still playing without Blake Griffin, lost its second straight.

The Clippers' reserves, who were without injured Paul Pierce, were outscored 51-20 by the Spurs' bench.
