Put away those Spurs-to-Austin (or anywhere else) speculations, because a new Spurs arena may be coming sooner than expected. With the AT&T Center reaching its 20th anniversary last season, there had been rumors of building a new arena more in the heart of San Antonio somewhere in the semi-distant future.
While the AT&T Center was state-of-the-art when it was built in 2002 (and can somewhat be credited to Tim Duncan for its existence, as getting out of the Alamodome was one of his “requests” upon returning in free agency), many teams are now sporting newer arenas, and its location has never been perfect.
