San Antonio doesn’t have a great history of last-ditch home-stands in the month of March, but that’s where the Spurs find themselves in this snake-bitten season, playing six straight games at the AT&T Center over the next 11 days. Likely at stake: a 20-season run of making the postseason, with reeling San Antonio now on the outside looking in.
The good news? The Spurs have still been one of the league’s best teams at home. The better news? Kawhi Leonard could come back as early as Thursday. Somewhere in between, maybe? They kick things off against the Orlando Magic, who have lost 11 of their last 13 and are comfortably in the race for the number-one pick.
