Essentially the most fascinating match-up might be in opposition to the Lions, if solely as a result of it brings some new (if probably outmatched) competitors. This will likely be their fourth sport in opposition to an NBA staff, with the opposite three coming within the 2016-2018 preseasons. Their present roster options two Individuals, together with Tyshaun Crawford and former NBA participant Jamaal Franklin, who final performed for the Denver Nuggets in the course of the 2014-15 season.
In any other case, in contrast to earlier years the place the Spurs had been dealing with rivals just like the Rockets and Thunder proper off the bat, the NBA matchups don’t generate a lot pleasure. Whereas the Pacers are the defending Jap Convention champions, they received’t be the identical staff with Tyrese Haliburton probably out for the season and Myles Turner signing with Milwaukee. Additionally, the Jazz are trying just like the cellar dwellers of the West (though we might get the Dylan Harper-Ace Bailey reunion that didn’t occur in Summer season League), and the Warmth have grow to be your common, middle-of-the-road staff that isn’t unhealthy however lacks upside.
Whereas not a lot must be taken from the preseason within the grand scheme of issues for the reason that primary rotation and veterans usually don’t play an excessive amount of, it represents likelihood to see new Spurs for the primary time on their residence courtroom. That can embody intriguing draft picks in Harper and Carter Bryant, in addition to free brokers Luke Kornet, Kelly Olynyk and Summer season League star David Jones-Garcia. Hopefully, we additionally get to see two Spurs stars whose seasons had been lower brief in Victor Wembaynama and De’Aaron Fox.
