As soon as once more, the Spurs face a crew that’s taking part in with a severely shortened roster tonight, because the Mavericks traded away 4 gamers, and the gamers they traded for aren’t anticipated to be out there tonight.

I’m not even going to listing the out there gamers, as a result of I don’t even know, nevertheless it might be one other day the place a Spurs squad faces a decimated opponent. The Spurs even have some damage points, with Luke Kornet out with ankle and adductor points.
