Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs walked in like they had a secret. By the end of the night, millions knew what it was.

They might be new to what qualifies in December as a big stage. But they’re more ready for it than most anyone could have imagined.

After a 111-109 NBA Cup semifinal victory in which the Spurs spotted the Thunder a 16-point lead and a Wembanyama-less first quarter they still managed to beat the unbeatable.

Talked in Vegas to Tony Parker about Spurs DNA, and “fearless” backcourt duos, and unfair comparisons, and why it might not be so crazy to start making them.

Why ‘fearless’ young Spurs have Tony Parker making heady comparisons
The Spurs have kept on chugging without Victor Wembanyama, and the recent play of young guards Stephon Castle and Dylan Harper caught the Frenchman's eye.

Ball is in mayor's court — will she take the win or open door for Spurs' exit?
By almost any measure, the Spurs contributing $500 million to a new arena is a win.

On our post-lottery Spurs Insider pod, we chew over what the local cagers might do with the No. 2 pick.

Why picking Dylan Harper makes a ton of sense despite positional overlap, and why a potential Giannis trade is not totally a slam-dunk idea:

The owners of the San Antonio Missions are checking off more boxes as they get closer to starting construction on a downtown ballpark for the Double-A team.

But there’s one unchecked box standing in the way of playing in a downtown stadium. bit.ly/4j7xzwv

I wonder how this would affect #TXHSFB ?
The school vouchers being presented to the Texas Legislature in Senate Bill 2 will HURT Texas Public Schools.
Texas schools are a vital part of Texas communities and should be supporter with taxpayer dollars. Please call your representative and tell them to vote NO on SB 2.

Good feature from @mikefinger.bsky.social
Were you able to get one on one time with Cooper Flagg and his family or did you craft this from group interviews?
Two years after the best teenaged basketball player in the world arrived in San Antonio, it’s happening again - with a Final Four twist.

Talked to Cooper Flagg about following Wemby’s lead, and to Flagg’s dad about keeping a tight circle.
