Your daily briefing on what's going on with the San Antonio Spurs, including news, draft & more.
This summer, players from the Spurs' G League affiliate got the chance to suit up on behalf of the team with a chance to sign one of two available 2-way contracts. They ended up going to David Duke Jr. and Harrison Ingram, but there still may be spots available — just not with the mainstay roster.
Wednesday morning, Austin announced it would be hosting local player tryouts for the G League squad on Sept. 7 at St. Michael's Athletic Center on Barton Creek Boulevard.Players who attend will go through a series of drills and exercises while the front office scouts, looking for up to three players to invite to training camp in the fall. Since 2013, 12 players from this kind of tryout have gone on to make the opening-night roster with the squad.
Check in at St. Michael's Athletic Center on Sept. 7 begins at 8:30 a.m. Central, with the tryouts running from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.. Registration is required for attendance.San Antonio Spurs guard Blake Wesley is continuing to carve out a role for himself with the young team, but he's also matching the brand of the team he plays for in another way: Giving back to the youth through coaching and mentoring.
There are 78 days until opening night of the 2024-25 NBA season, but the San Antonio Spurs have more to look forward to prior to that. The regular season schedule has yet to be released, but the entire preseason schedule — also still a ways away — has. There, the team will get its first chance to hit the floor with a complete roster.
