Kawhi Leonard matched his career high with 26 points and set a career best with seven steals as the red-hot San Antonio Spurs rolled past Golden State, 107-92, on Sunday in San Antonio, snapping the Warriors’ 12-game winning streak while extending their own to seven straight.

San Antonio also extended its home winning streak over Golden State to 32 consecutive wins.

Tim Duncan had 19 points and Danny Green scored 18 for San Antonio (51-26), which led by as many as 28 points.

Stephen Curry had 24 points but Klay Thompson was held to six points on three-for-11 shooting for Golden State (63-14), which still needs one win, or a loss by Atlanta, to be assured of finishing with the best overall record in the NBA.
