The Story in 60 Seconds

The San Antonio Spurs are opening training camp following a run to the NBA Finals last season. The team added depth over the summer by signing Tobias Harris and drafting two big men to complement Victor Wembanyama. Head coach Mitch Johnson and his staff will use camp and five preseason games to establish rotations before their season opener against the Oklahoma City Thunder on October 20.

Financially, San Antonio sits $2.1 million below the luxury tax threshold and aims to avoid tax penalties before Wembanyama's extension begins. With 14 guaranteed roster spots filled, players on camp deals—including Taelon Peter, RJ Davis, Jon Elmore, and Malik Williams—are competing for the 15th spot.
