The shining light of Victor Wembanyama has healed a lot of wounds in the world of the San Antonio Spurs this season. The 20-year-old rookie looks like a guy who can lead the franchise into the future and be one of the faces of the league. But that doesn’t change the fact that they’ve been one of the worst teams in the league this season.
Following their loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night, the Spurs fell to 11-46 on the season. That’s on pace for a .193 win percentage. If they finish the year on that pace, it would be the worst winning percentage in franchise history.
The current franchise-worst is a .244 winning percentage, which the Spurs achieved during the 1996-97 season when they went 20-62. That summer, they drafted Tim Duncan.
Can the Spurs avoid having the worst record in franchise history this year? The Locked On Spurs podcast YouTube channel recently discussed this very topic.
Will the Spurs win at least nine more games this year?
