Spurs' LaMarcus Aldridge: Scores team-high 24 in Saturday's win

Aldridge scored 24 points (9-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT) while adding seven rebounds and a steal in 34 minutes during Saturday's 112-100 win over the Wizards.

Analysis:

Aldridge bounced back nicely from his 10-point effort in Friday's victory over the Celtics, leading the Spurs in scoring as they remained undefeated on the road. He has scored 20 or more points in four of his last five games while supplying value in the defensive categories with eight blocks and six steals over that stretch as well. Though he had a bit of a slow start to the season, Aldridge now appears to be finding his groove.
