Going into 2018-19, the San Antonio Spurs found themselves in uncharted territory. For the first time in the Popovich-era, the Spurs began a season without any of their iconic trio of Tim Duncan, Tony Parker or Manu Ginobili on the roster.
Also gone were Kawhi Leonard and Danny Green, leaving two members from the 2013-2014 championship team on the roster. The Silver and Black were hovering around the .500 mark and a playoff berth was no certainty.
However, since December 7th, San Antonio has posted a .777 winning percentage and are currently a game out of the third seed in the Western Conference.
