San Antonio Mayor Gina Ortiz Jones didn’t hold back during her first Town Hall of the new year, blasting Spurs owner and Dell Technologies founder Michael Dell for making a $6 billion donation in December to the White House’s Trump accounts program. “Michael Dell is an owner of the Spurs,” Jones said. “I wonder if he was able to do that because the city gave up — and the county gave up — so much money for the [new Spurs] arena. Because if you can give $6 billion for these accounts, you could have paid for your own arena.”

Marc Stein: NBA commissioner Adam Silver has named Toronto’s Darko Rajaković as head coach for Team World in next weekend’s All-Star Game. Detroit’s J.B. Bickerstaff and San Antonio’s Mitch Johnson will coach the two USA teams. The full roster breakdown will be announced later today.

Jason Beede: #Magic forward Franz Wagner (left high ankle sprain injury management) remains OUT for Sunday’s game at San Antonio. He’ll miss his sixth in a row. Spurs likely won’t have an injury report until tomorrow because they played at Charlotte this afternoon.
Anthony Morrow: Right now San Antonio is like the little brother of Oklahoma City. Like they're right in the same path. Like you see how Sam Presti has developed this team to be what they are now. It's the same as what San Antonio was with developing who they were and they've been sustainable. Shout out to Coach Popovich, RC Buford, doing that work over there and just the development, and I know Sam kind of took that blueprint and went there with it. I would love to see them in the Western Conference Finals every year for the next five years or something like that because they still young.
Will Hardy: I still have seared in my brain this this mental image of Tim Duncan in his last season in San Antonio, shooting jump hooks on the gun 45 minutes before a shoot around of game like 40 of the season. He's shooting three-foot jump hooks over the net with the gun in his last season. And then you're going, that's unbelievable, that that guy still had the want to and the awareness and the presence of mind to say like ‘this is my process and I have to practice these little bunnies to start my day.’ At that point obviously in his career, his routines were his routines. And my hope is that we can help our young players for each person build their own routines of what helps them prepare to play and prepare to win at the highest level.

The city of San Antonio is using $31 million from Spurs Sports & Entertainment to buy property that’s crucial to the NBA franchise’s plan to build an arena downtown surrounded by housing, retail space, offices and hotel rooms. The City Council voted unanimously Thursday to give staff the go-ahead to make an offer to the federal government for about 5.7 acres in the Hemisfair area, paving the way for mixed-use development near the planned $1.3 billion arena. The move would give the city and the Hemisfair Park Area Redevelopment Corp., an organization set up by the city to redevelop the site of the 1968 World’s Fair, control of most of the land in the area.
