Latest news and updates about the Spurs
Coming off a supernatural experience that opened the eyes of the basketball world against the Mavericks, the Spurs traveled to the Smoothie King Center to take on the New Orleans Pelicans. This time, a back-and-forth affair ensued. After Zion Williamson put Victor Wembanyama on a semi-poster, Wemby proceeded to block him at the rim three […]
After what felt like a near-perfect game against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday, the San Antonio Spurs looked more like a young squad again in Friday’s 120-116 win over the New Orleans Pelicans. The game was defined by messy offense, blown leads, and silly mistakes. And yet, in overtime when it was time to step […]

The Dallas Mavericks fell to the Washington Wizards 117-107 in Friday night’s matchup at home. The horrid loss marks Dallas’ second of the season, and follows a rather forgettable 125-92 defeat to Victor Wembanyama’s Spurs. Daniel Gafford (ankle sprain), Dante Exum (mysteriously undisclosed leg injury?), and Kyrie Irving (ACL) were all out for the Mavericks. […]
After a too easy and perhaps too fun opening night blowout of the Dallas Mavericks, the Spurs came back down to earth a bit against an injured New Orleans Pelicans club that at least has a healthy Zion Williamson back. It was a back-and-forth, ugly game where neither team ever led by double figures or […]
The Pelicans provided a much tougher test for the Silver and Black tonight than the poorly constructed roster of the Mavericks on Wednesday. The combination of elite shooting and ball movement kept the Spurs defense off balance as the home crowd kept the environment hostile for the Spurs. It was a good learning experience for […]

The San Antonio Spurs made a statement on Wednesday night. A dominant 125-92 win over the Dallas Mavericks has made them the talk of the NBA world in the last few days. That’s thanks to Victor Wembanyama’s dominant 40-point, 15-rebound performance. Now, many are expecting the Spurs to go over their expected win total of […]
After a truly defeating 125-92 loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night, the Dallas Mavericks are set to take on the Washington Wizards tonight in the second game of their five-game homestand. Dallas looked awfully poor on both ends of the floor in their first game of the season, but it was the […]
The Dallas Mavericks kicked off their 2025-26 campaign against the San Antonio Spurs Wednesday at the American Airlines Center, a thrashing by Victor Wembanyama and Co. Now that the ball is rolling it got us looking ahead to the rest of the calendar for our annual tradition. Every season there is, inevitably, a handful of […]

There’s something almost grotesque in the way that the summer lingers in Texas. Where other regionalities have begun to cool in the 10th month of the annum, a feeling of freshly minted hell permeates throughout the beef state, with 90-degree temperatures still in reach. Fall is here, though, make no mistake. And with it, the […]

Editor’s note: This was written well before that butt whipping from Wednesday. The southwest division looked to be a juggernaut for years to come just a few short years ago. The Mavericks were Luka Doncic’s team, San Antonio had just drafted Victor Wembanyama, Ja Morant and the Grizzlies looked very solid, Zion Williamson was still […]

Stumbling Out of the Gate It had been 187 days since the Dallas Mavericks last played a meaningful game, when they were eliminated by the Memphis Grizzlies in the play-in tournament. Since winning the NBA Draft Lottery in May, enthusiasm and hope returned to the Mavericks fanbase, having the opportunity to draft 18-year-old phenom Cooper […]
There’s no other story. No clever side door to sneak through. We can’t frame this as the top two draft picks squaring off in their NBA debuts. We’re not here to talk about the Spurs starting a season without Gregg Popovich patrolling the sidelines for the first time in decades. And if you came looking […]
The Dallas Mavericks lost to the San Antonio Spurs by 33 points Wednesday night in Dallas. Lack of spacing, shot creation, defensive cohesion – and too much Victor Wembanyama – are just some of the issues the Mavs struggled with in the nightmare start to the season. During the preseason, the Mavs have been very […]
The San Antonio Spurs dismantled the Dallas Mavericks and claimed initial bragging rights in the season’s first Texas tussle. On a stage featuring two of the NBA’s brightest attractions, Victor Wembanyama was shining brightest and spoiled Cooper Flagg’s pro debut. No De’Aaron Fox, Kelly Olynyk and Jeremy Sochan, no problem. Wembanyama made up for lost […]
The San Antonio Spurs defeated the Dallas Mavericks 125-92 Wednesday night in Dallas. There was bound to be a presence announced in the season opener between the Dallas Mavericks and San Antonio Spurs. Unfortunately for the home team, it wasn’t Cooper Flagg’s night to hold the bullhorn. Instead, it was Spurs big man Victor Wembanyama […]
After an off-season in which the Dallas Mavericks selected Cooper Flagg with the first pick in the NBA Draft, Wednesday night kicked off the 2025-26 NBA season in Big D.

The Dallas Mavericks lost their season opener in embarrassing fashion, falling to the San Antonio Spurs, 125-92. Victor Wembanyama exploded into the 2025-26 season with 40 points and 15 rebounds. Anthony Davis led a pathetic effort from Dallas, scoring 22 in defeat. The Mavericks played aggressively early, jumping out to a 6-2 lead on the […]
