Spurs Fiesta 5: Frost Bank Center Becomes Home
1. NEW ARENA NAME "After over 15 years of playing on the floor of the AT&T Center and over 20 years in the venue itself, the San Antonio Spurs will reportedly be calling their home arena Frost Bank Center."
2. THE WEMBY EFFECT "According to the San Antonio Express-News, via an anonymous source, there is no question that Frost's ultimate decision to title sponsor the San Antonio Spurs' arena was largely in part, to the drafting of Victor Wembanyama."
3. BANKING ON SPURS GLORY "Worried they would have to go without an arena sponsor after AT&T bailed, Frost swooped in today with a fat check that is reportedly good through 2032. Frost is banking (pun intended) on a return to glory on the court, national television eyeballs on the games and a shiny new arena closer to downtown in which to hawk its business."
4. BIG SHOT BOB ON TV "Horry, who turns 53 later this month, was named as one of the celebrities participating in FOX's "Special Forces."
5. ROSTER CRUNCH COMING "Teams don’t need to get to 15 roster players until prior to the start of the regular season," HoopsHype wrote of the Spurs' roster crunch. "[San Antonio] has a lot of very good players that ... are very much available and could get cut if they’re not moved."
