Currently, the Spurs are at the top of the Western Conference, sitting at the number one seed with a perfect four-and-o start. Nobody expected them to start the season this way, which raised questions about whether they are one more contending team in the West. The biggest anomaly is their inexperience and age, with 25.20 being the number.
Supporters hope the Spurs' performance leads to residents voting in favor of new arena funding. Others argue the project would be a bad deal in the long run.
UT-San Antonio Professor of Public Policy Jon Taylor told the Current the sudden rush of cash into the pro-arena PAC may have stemmed from a poll conducted earlier this month by UT-San Antonio’s Center for Public Opinion Research.

As the San Antonio Spurs played their home opener of the 2025-26 season on Sunday, Oct. 26, fans noticed some new decor in Frost Bank Center: a banner honoring former head coach Gregg Popovich as the winningest coach in NBA history. There was no ceremony, no fanfare, no announcement. It truly honored the legacy that Popovich left behind.
The San Antonio Spurs returned to the Alamo City on Sunday to face the Brooklyn Nets, but the biggest moment of the day came quietly before tipoff. Without prior announcement, the organization quietly unveiled a new banner honoring legendary former head coach and current team president Gregg Popovich.
This could become Wembanyama’s league sooner than initially anticipated. Hall of Famer Camelo Anthony, who was a great scorer in his own right during his career, said that the 21-year-old will win the league MVP award this season.
It’s spooky season in San Antonio, and early voters may be tempted to swing by the polls in costume before heading out for Halloween festivities.
