1988–89 San Antonio Spurs season

The 1988–89 NBA season was the Spurs' 13th season in the NBA and 22nd season as a franchise.[1] The Spurs had the tenth overall pick in the 1988 NBA draft, and selected Willie Anderson from the University of Georgia.[2][3][4][5][6] The team also acquired rookie guard Vernon Maxwell out of the University of Florida from the Denver Nuggets, and hired Larry Brown as their new head coach.[7][8][9][10] The Spurs struggled all season long, posting an 8-game losing streak in December, a 7-game losing streak in January, holding a 13–33 record at the All-Star break,[11] then posting a 13-game losing streak between February and March, and a 9-game losing streak to end their season, finishing fifth in the Midwest Division with an awful 21–61 record, missing the playoffs.[12]
