On the Fourth of July, the United States of America celebrates the anniversary of its independence with fireworks, cookouts and gatherings with loved ones. It’s also a particularly exciting time for NBA fans, considering it falls right in the heat of free agency, but the league’s suspension in March dramatically changed that timeline. Now, San Antonio Spurs fans have more time to ponder what’s to come for this year’s free agency class.
Based in Military City, U.S.A., the Spurs organization has been home to some incredible individuals. The top names that come to mind are the two men who were most influential in laying the foundation for San Antonio to become home an NBA dynasty: Head coach Gregg Popovich and Hall of Famer David Robinson.
