Hello, and welcome to yet another edition of ‘The Spurs versus a team missing a lot of players!’
And if that feels a bit like deja vu, rest assured that it’s not a glitch in the matrix, these have all been different teams. In fact, due to a recent surge in covid-related absences, six of the Spurs last eight games have been played against teams missing at least four players from their usual roster.
The twist in this contest is that only two of Miami’s players will actually be missing due to health and safety protocols. The rest are the result of plain old injuries.
