Coming off a victory against the Portland Trail Blazers, the Spurs battled the Dallas Mavericks for the final time this season. Stephon Castle was ruled out, but Victor Wembanyama returned from his rib contusion. The Spurs started the game hot, outscoring the Mavs 37-26 in the first quarter. However, the Mavs fought back and outscored […]
If there were any doubts that Victor Wembanyama would be hampered in the playoffs due to his rib injury, they were quickly silenced on Friday night. Wembanyama secured a First-team All-NBA spot and the Defensive Player of the Year award in his 65th game, putting up an eye-popping 40 points, 13 rebounds, 5 assists, and […]
The Dallas Mavericks (25-56) took on the San Antonio Spurs (62-19) Friday night in their penultimate game of the 2025-2026 season, which ended in a 139-120 loss. Dallas rolled in with a lengthy injury list that included the usual suspects this year, along with P.J. Washington, Naji Marshall and Klay Thompson. The game started off […]
April 12th is the last day of the regular season and then the Spurs have a couple of days off before they begin the first round of the playoffs. What to do, what to do? How about meeting Devin Vassell? On Monday, April 13th, Spurs swingman Devin Vassell will be making a guest appearance at […]
For 24 minutes, it didn’t look like a blowout. Inside the Frost Bank Center, the San Antonio Spurs found themselves in a game that felt tighter than expected. The Dallas Mavericks weren’t backing down, trading shots, matching energy, and riding a red-hot first half from Cooper Flagg that kept the crowd uneasy. San Antonio hadn’t […]
The Dallas Mavericks (25-56) took on the San Antonio Spurs (62-19) for the last time in the 2025-2026 season. Saturday night’s matchup ended with Dallas on the wrong side of a 139-120 final score, with the loss dropping Dallas’ record to 25-56 with one game remaining. The Mavs had eight players listed as “out” so […]
The Dallas Mavericks (25-56) went out with a whimper against San Antonio Spurs (62-19) at Frost Bank Center on Friday, dropping a 139-120 blowout loss to their once hated rivals. Cooper Flagg matched Victor Wembanyama step for step with 33 points and six rebounds in the loss, but no one rode shotgun alongside the rookie […]
San Antonio managed to give its superstar center the requisite playing time and keep all of its rotation players under 30 minutes in a 139-120 beating of Dallas tonight. The two superstars – Victor Wembanyama (24 points) for San Antonio (62-19) and Cooper Flagg (25 points) for Dallas (25-56) – went supernova in a high-scoring […]
The Dallas Mavericks (25-55) play their last road game of the 2025-206 regular season, facing off against the San Antonio Spurs (61-19). Dallas last played the Phoenix Suns and could not notch a win despite a valiant effort down many rotation guys. The Spurs are coming off wins over the Philadelphia Sixers and Portland Trailblazers, […]
Welcome to the Game Thread. Veterans of the Game Thread know how we do things around here, but for all you newbies we have a few rules. Our community guidelines apply and basically say be cool, no personal attacks, don’t troll and don’t swear too much. Let’s be honest. The Mavericks aren’t looking to win any more […]
There’s something almost poetic about how our last two SB Nation Reacts polls have aged. Not just “a little outdated.” Not just “slightly off.” Completely obliterated by reality within 72 hours. Last week, we asked whether Wolves fans would prefer the Lakers/Spurs path or the Nuggets/Thunder gauntlet. It was a fun, forward-looking exercise, the kind […]
Jordan McLaughlin came to the Spurs as part of the trade that put De’Aaron Fox in a Spurs jersey. The Silver & Black lost Tre Jones, Zach Collins, and Sidy Cissoko, but gained a clutch starting point guard to pair with Victor Wembanyama while offering a veteran presence to the young squad. While the inclusion […]
Aside from Victor Wembanyama’s NBA Awards eligibility and Cooper Flagg’s ROY case, the San Antonio Spurs and Dallas Mavericks both come into their 4th and final match-up this season with little to play for. The Spurs, locked into the #2 seed, are just waiting for the playoffs to get here, while Dallas has both eyes […]
The Dallas Mavericks (25-55) head back to the Lone Star state Friday night to face off against their division rivals, the San Antonio Spurs (61-19). It’s the last road game of the last road trip of the season, and it’s one that might have some real sway as far as the offseason goes. At the […]
The San Antonio Spurs were without Victor Wembanyama and Stephon Castle, and still controlled the game in the 112-101 win over the Portland Trail Blazers. They got contributions up and down the roster to fill in for two of their stars. The Spurs’ bench outscored Portland’s 48-10. Keldon Johnson and Carter Bryant were brilliant off […]
Coming off a win against the Philadelphia 76ers, the Spurs battled the Portland Trail Blazers for the last time this season. Due to injuries suffered in the last game, Victor Wembanyama and Stephon Castle were ruled out. As a result, Dylan Harper and Luke Kornet started in their places. After outscoring the Blazers 32-23 at […]
Social media can be a toxic place, even if you stick to sports like me. Facebook doesn’t police propaganda or fake news, and I can’t tell you how many people in the Spurs Facebook group fall for these fake posts. Twitter X is a tad bit better at rooting that stuff out, but the attitude […]
The Portland Trail Blazers dropped a tough game against a short-handed San Antonio Spurs team on Wednesday night, 112-101. The Spurs were without their MVP candidate Victor Wembanyama and budding star point guard Stephon Castle, yet still found a way to beat the highly motivated Blazers. The game was never really in doubt as the […]
I must admit that I didn’t have high hopes entering yesterday’s game. After all, both Castle and Wemby were sidelined, and the Spurs weren’t really playing for anything (the chance of them getting the first seed is now officially zero). In contrast, a Portland win tonight would have matched their record with the Clippers, giving […]
Last Monday, the Spurs showcased 2014 Spurs NBA Champion Boris Diaw at the Frost Bank Center during their matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers. He treated the crowd to a reenactment of his now iconic photo. On Wednesday night, the Portland Trail Blazers came to town, bringing back former players Sidy Cissoko, Blake Wesley, and head […]
The night could have easily tilted the other way for the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday. No Victor Wembanyama, Stephon Castle, and a late-season game with playoff stakes quietly looming in the background. On paper, it felt like a trap. Instead, the Spurs turned it into a statement. Behind a composed offensive attack and a […]
The Portland Trail Blazers got some good news out of their trip to play the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night. The Los Angeles Clippers, the team the Blazers are racing in the road to the NBA Play-In Tournament, lost to the Oklahoma City Thunder. That took the sting out of Portland’s 112-101 defeat at […]
The Spurs turned in a solid performance tonight without Stephon Castle and Victor Wembanyama. It wasn’t a perfect game, as the team survived despite turning the ball over too much and not exactly playing the most efficient offense, allowing the Blazers to cut the lead to a couple of baskets late in the fourth quarter. […]
The Portland Trail Blazers faced the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night without Victor Wembanyama on the floor and with plenty to play for in the Western Conference Play-In Tournament race. None of that ended up mattering much. Portland showed up with a tepid effort–with spurts of energy, largely directionless–on their way to a 112-101 […]
