“scored 10 points with 13 rebounds across 27 minutes in Game 2.”
INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE
The claim states Hartenstein had 10 points and 13 rebounds in Game 2. However, the CBS Sports evidence for a 'Game 2' (though it refers to the Semifinals vs Nuggets) lists different stats, and the general evidence provided does not support the specific 10pt/13reb line for the Spurs game. More importantly, the CBS source explicitly attributes a different stat line to a Game 2 performance, and no other source confirms the 10/13 line for the Spurs game.
