What happened

San Antonio’s preseason opener against Atlanta showed its starters well for about a quarter before the rest of the game shifted toward other options, with some late-minute players not expected to make the roster. The game thread also notes Victor Wembanyama on the bench in the第二?

The Spurs head into tonight’s preseason meeting with Phoenix, where the thread highlights a Suns team built around shooters and notes Dillon Brooks’ hot early three-point shooting in exhibition play. It also frames the matchup as a short look before the deeper bench takes over.

LINEUP CONTEXT

This suggests San Antonio is still sorting its preseason rotation, so the late-game minutes may be more informative than the opening group. Phoenix’s wing-heavy, shooting-oriented lineup adds another evaluation point, but it does not confirm any regular-season roles yet.
