The Austin Spurs rallied from a deficit to beat the Capital City Go-Go 110-103 Thursday at the H-E-B Center at Cedar Park. Kyle Mangas paced the Spurs with 24 points and reserve Jayden Nunn added a season-high 23, their scoring partnership carrying Austin through the final minutes.

Nunn, an undrafted rookie from Baylor, came off the bench and sparked the offense early, totaling 15 points by halftime while making an impact on both ends of the floor. He created space on the perimeter against Keshon Gilbert, including a notable three-point shot that banked in after a crossover, and he forced a turnover in the second quarter that led to a highlight dunk by Harrison Ingram.

After a scoreless third quarter for Nunn, he regained his stroke in the fourth, delivering eight points when the Spurs needed baskets most. Austin opened a decisive 15-2 run in the final period that allowed them to retake control and pull away from Capital City.

Mangas took on a larger scoring role when needed, filling the offensive gap during the third-quarter stretch and contributing the majority of his points in the second half. He said he focuses on creating chaos for defenses and moving the ball to generate advantages for teammates.

Coach Jacob Chance pointed to Nunn's ability to perform in late-game situations, noting the rookie has shown he can make plays when the game tightens. The bench scoring and starter play combined to give Austin an edge in a tightly contested matchup.

Austin will return to the H-E-B Center at Cedar Park Friday night to complete the back-to-back series against Capital City, with tipoff scheduled for 7 p.m. Central Time. The win highlighted the Spurs' scoring balance between starters and reserves as they prepare for the rematch.
