We're thrilled by the response we've enjoyed in Austin the last two seasons, said Brandon James, Spurs senior vice president of strategic growth. We had high hopes when we decided to play regular season games in Austin and the results have far surpassed our expectations. The support and engagement we've felt in Moody Center and across the Austin community have been a positive indicator of purposeful and sustained engagement efforts. We're excited to continue to connect with our fans in Austin and across our region in meaningful ways during the 2024-25 season and into the future.

During the 2023-24 season, the Spurs set a Moody Center attendance record for a sporting event, entertaining 16,223 fans against the Denver Nuggets on March 15 after setting the previous attendance record (16,023) in the inaugural I-35 Series game against the Portland Trail Blazers on April 6, 2023.

Additional details and fan-facing programming for the 2024-25 I-35 Series will be announced at a later date.

The San Antonio Spurs open their 82-game regular season schedule in Dallas, facing the Mavericks on Oct. 24 on TNT, one of 21 national TV broadcasts the Spurs will enjoy during the 2024-25 campaign.
