The San Antonio Spurs will meet the Atlanta Hawks tonight at home in an NBA game live streaming online at 8:30 PM ET.

The Spurs will be trying to avoid their first consecutive losses of the season. They should have a good chance to do it against a Hawks team they've dominated over the years, having defeated them 15 straight times.

This game also marks the return of Atlanta first-year coach Mike Budenholzer to San Antonio, where he spent nearly 20 years as a video coordinator and assistant coach.

After winning their first seven home games, the Spurs (14-3) trailed by 23 before coming back to take a late three-point lead against Houston on Saturday. The Rockets, however, scored the final nine points in a 112-106 win.

Tony Parker returned from a one-game absence because of an ankle injury and finished with a season-high 27 points. Tim Duncan scored 20 and Marco Belinelli added 18 with four 3-pointers for San Antonio, which has dropped two of three.

The Spurs will try to get back on track defensively after allowing a season-high point total at home. They had given up an average of 89.3 in their previous seven in San Antonio.

"It's a great lesson for us," coach Gregg Popovich said. "When you play a good basketball team, you've got to come with passion, an edge and aggressiveness for 48 minutes -- and we did that for a half."

Atlanta seeks its first win in San Antonio since Feb. 15, 1997, having lost the last 15 visits by an average of 17.5 points. The Hawks have averaged 85.7 points and 41.5 percent shooting during that skid, and they're slumping heading into this matchup.

Atlanta cut an 18-point, third-quarter deficit to 81-79 with 9:42 left before falling 108-101 in Washington on Saturday.

"We're trying to find ourselves as a team, trying to put it together," said center Al Horford, who has missed two of the last three meetings with the Spurs due to injury. "Hopefully we can get it going. I think we will."

Jeff Teague, averaging a team-high 17.3 points, has scored 11.5 and shot 30.2 percent in his last four road games. He finished with six points while going 3 of 11 in last season's loss in San Antonio.

Backcourt mate Kyle Korver may not be able to play after missing the past three games with a bruised rib. He has made at least one 3-pointer in 88 consecutive games.
