Emeka Okafor added 19 points for Charlotte (2-6), which had lost four straight. It was the first victory over the Spurs in Bobcats franchise history after four previous tries.

Morrison, a rookie from Gonzaga, scored 21 points Tuesday in Oklahoma City.

Tony Parker scored 25 points and Tim Duncan added 24 for the Spurs (6-2), who had won five straight games.

San Antonio could have tied the game with 29 seconds left in overtime, but Manu Ginobili missed a wide-open 3-pointer.

Charlotte rebounded and got the ball in the hands of Raymond Felton, and the Spurs fouled him to stop the clock with 16 seconds.

Felton sank the first foul shot but missed the second. Okafor rebounded and slammed the ball back in to give the Bobcats a 95-89 lead.

Both teams had a chance to win the game at the end of regulation, but Brevin Knight missed an 18-footer that Ginobili rebounded and pushed up the floor.

Ginobili passed to Michael Finley, who missed a 3-pointr at the buzzer.

It was the third start of the season for Morrison. He hit six of his first seven shots in the opening quarter while the rest of the Bobcats shot 3-of-15 to start the game.

During a stretch of 6:08 in the first quarter Morrison scored 13 of 15 Bobcats points and Charlotte built a six-point lead.

But after the hot start, Morrison missed his next four shots.

Morrison started the season shooting 10-of-43 (23 percent), but has gone 21-for-41 the past two nights in Oklahoma City and San Antonio.

After the Spurs won the previous night in a big effort to overcome a 19-point second-half deficit, San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich already had pulled four of his starters with 4:24 before the end of the first quarter.
