As for the Spurs, they are 3-7 in their first ten games and in the middle of a five-game losing streak.

Most recently, they lost to the Miami Heat by a score of 118-113. 

Keldon Johnson led the team with 20 points, 12 rebounds, six assists, one steal and one block while shooting 8/18 from the field and 3/10 from the three-point range in 37 minutes of playing time. 

Last season, they were the 15th seed in the Western Conference with a 22-60 record and missed the playoffs for the fourth straight year. 

However, there is a lot of excitement around the franchise because of rookie Victor Wembanyama.
