Season synopsis

Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. During the 2018 offseason, star forward Kawhi Leonard requested a trade. He and Danny Green were traded to the Toronto Raptors in exchange for DeMar DeRozan, Jakob Pöltl, and a 2019 protected first round pick on July 18, 2018.

The 2018-19 season was the first season since the 2000–01 season in which point guard Tony Parker was not on the team. After 17 years with the Spurs, he signed with the Charlotte Hornets in the off-season. It was also the first season since the 2001–02 season without Manu Ginóbili, who retired from the NBA on August 27, 2018, officially ending what was the Spurs' "Big Three" era.[1] The departures of Parker, Danny Green, and Kawhi Leonard, and the retirement of Ginóbili, left Patty Mills as the longest-tenured Spur on the roster. Mills and Marco Belinelli were the last remaining players on the team who had played for the Spurs' 2014 championship team.

On March 28, 2019, the Spurs retired Ginóbili's number 20 jersey.
