Losses have continued to add up for the San Antonio Spurs as they come dangerously close to going a whole month without winning a single game. Though the Phoenix Suns pummeled them by nearly 40 points in their last contest, perhaps three days of rest and a date against the fellow bottom-dwelling Houston Rockets can flip their fortunes around.
Bumps and bruises have made the first year of the rebuild grueling for the Silver and Black, not that it was ever going to be smooth sailing from start to finish. They enter this matchup shorthanded again for a tankathon with their I-10 adversary, and the results could have a legitimate influence on the impending Victor Wembanyama sweepstakes.
