History

Historical Context

After the Twin Towers of Tim Duncan and David Robinson captured San Antonio’s first NBA title in 1999—winning the Finals 4-1 amid a lockout-shortened 50-game season—the Spurs built an 18-year streak of 50-win seasons. In 2024, the team returns as a 10.5-point underdog against the Minnesota Timberwolves, with rookie Victor Wembanyama projected to exceed 26.5 points.
