“It’s in the DNA of the Spurs to be engaged with the military community,” says Matthew Hartwig, Communications Director at the United Services Automobile Association.
Hartwig was a firsthand witness to the intense dedication of the San Antonio Spurs organization to the veteran/active duty community of Military City, USA. In association with USAA, the Spurs held a Military Training Camp for 50 active duty service members with representation from the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard on Thursday afternoon.
Led by Assistant Coaches Ime Udoka and Will Hardy, this select group of service members ran through a succession of lessons and drills to learn how to execute the meticulous strategies of Spurs basketball.
