3 Key San Antonio Spurs statistics to pay attention to at NBA Disney

Here are 3 San Antonio Spurs stats to pay close attention to in Orlando

As the San Antonio Spurs and the rest of the NBA start gearing up for the resumption of the regular season in Disney in just over a month we the fans should also start refamiliarizing ourselves with the team.

It’s been months since we last saw the Spurs play, and the team that takes the court in Orlando will surely be different than the one that we saw for the majority of the regular season. The most obvious change will be the absence of star big man LaMarcus Aldrdige who underwent shoulder surgery earlier in the summer and will miss the rest of the season and any potential post-season baskets.

Another question that the team will have to deal with will be the potential absence of players who are deciding to abstain from finishing up the season due to health or family concerns. So far we have not heard of any Spurs players sitting out but with players like Jakob Poeltl returning from injury, it wouldn’t be surprising to see a player or two join the ranks of Trevor Ariza and Avery Bradley as players who will not return to play with their teams.

Even if a few players sit out there will hopefully be enough of the young players going that these final eight games of the regular season will still be interesting for Spurs fans. We might even walk away with a better idea of what the future of the team looks like.

Statistics can’t paint a full picture of a team but backing these three key statistics up with what we see in Orlando can go a long way in helping us understand what next season may hold for the San Antonio Spurs.
