Dennis Schroder played his part as the Oklahoma City Thunder stayed hot on the heels of the Warriors and the Nuggets at the top of the Western Conference.
The Thunder proved too strong for the San Antonio Spurs and with the Nuggets losing, Schroder and his team-mates are just two-and-a-half games behind conference-leading Denver.
It was an all-round effort from OKC with seven players recording double digits in the scoring front but Schroder, whose 19 points trailed only Russell Westbrook, proved his worth with a super performance, highlighted by this stunning assist.
Six assists and four steals underline his importance to the team and he managed both in this stunning play, pinching the ball in his own half before racing down court to set up Westbrook with a no-look behind the back pass that left the bucket on a plate for his team-mate.
