San Antonio FC's average positions during the first half of its match against Phoenix Rising FC on March 7, 2026
HMMM... π€π¬π
...Yeah, that's a three-man backline despite what SAFC showed. FWIW, Blanco is farther forward than O'Connor-Ward, sure, but not central at all, very much a wing back. #SAvPHX #Defend210
HT: SAFC 1-0 PHX
The lone goal of the half came just six minutes in from Jorge Hernandez. Since then, neither side has had too many chances. The wind is likely also a factor. #SAvPHX
Officials adding 1 minute of stoppage time to the end of the half. #SAvPHX
At the half hour mark, SAFC still leading 1-0 on Hernandez's goal 6 minutes in. Defense and backline have been tested, but they are up for the challenge.
6' | SAFC 1-0 PHX
Jorge Hernandez gets the scoring started for the 2026 season as he buries the ball off the feed from Parano. Good start for the guys in red.
The players for both clubs stand in solidarity for 1 minute straight amid ongoing CBA negotiations between USLPA and the league. Supporters group chanting βPay your playersβ #StandUpForStandards

NEW STORY: "Everybody gets everybody's back."
For much of the night, it felt like the Spurs were simply trying to survive. But basketball games, especially ones involving this young Spurs team, have a way of turning quickly.
My latest for @sbnation.bsky.social β¬
That 25 point lead for the Clippers is gone. Spurs on a 13-0 run and Vassell's three gives San Antonio the 99-97 lead with 7:35 left in regulation.
Ty Lue needs a timeout as the Frost Bank Center is rockin'. The Fox-Wemby PnR gets De'Aaron two points to get the Spurs within 5 points. Spurs were down 25 points in the 3rd quarter.
Spurs outscore the Clippers 35-26 in the 3rd quarter to cut the deficit to 11 entering the final 12 minutes.
And the Clippers respond with 5 straight. Timeout Mitch Johnson.
After trailing by 24, the Spurs are now down just 12 points. Spurs on a 17-4 run.
A solid defensive quarter for the Clippers sees the Spurs trail 66-46 at halftime.
Spurs are 7-23 from 3 (30%) and were outscored 34-21 in the 2Q.
Wemby leads the Spurs with 14 points.
Spurs' offense is dying by three ball in this second quarter. Just looking hesitant and not in their flow, credit to the Clippers defense.
The Klaw doing the things Spurs fans once cheered him for. He gets the steal and hoop as Mitch Johnson needs another timeout. Los Angeles starts the 2Q on a 6-0 run.
End of 1Q: Spurs 25, Los Angeles 32
Clippers doing a nice job disrupting the Spurs' offensive flow. Spurs with 4 TOs to the Clippers' 1.
Mitch Johnson is not happy with Steph Castle after that turnover, yelling "c'mon Steph" while clapping his hands. Spurs leading 12-11 in the 1st quarter.
Kawhi Leonard with LOUD boos as he's introduced. Spurs fans never forget (even though they should).
Hey! Been a busy few weeks on the politicial side of things, but I am back!
The Spurs will start their usual five of Wembanyama, Champagnie, Vassell, Castle, and Fox tonight against the LA Clippers.
A long sports weekend begins tonight with Spurs-Clippers. Letβs get it!
Give me OKC and Denver in a seven game series π₯
