Spurs Sports & Entertainment

Spurs Sports & Entertainment L.L.C. (SS&E) is an American sports and entertainment organization based in San Antonio, Texas. The company owns and operates several sporting franchises including the National Basketball Association (NBA) San Antonio Spurs, NBA G League Austin Spurs, and the USL Championship club San Antonio FC. SS&E also operates the Bexar County-owned multi-purpose facility, the Frost Bank Center.

A 2013 Forbes article called the San Antonio Spurs "North America's best run professional sports franchise," and ESPN named the Spurs as the best sports franchise in all major sports in 2014.

The San Antonio Spurs are an American professional basketball team based in San Antonio, Texas. They are part of the Southwest Division of the Western Conference in the National Basketball Association (NBA). They were NBA champions in 1999, 2003, 2005, 2007, and 2014.

The Spurs are one of four former American Basketball Association teams to remain intact in the NBA after the 1976 ABA–NBA merger. The Spurs' five NBA championships are the fifth most in history, behind only the Boston Celtics (18), Los Angeles Lakers (17), Golden State Warriors (7), and Chicago Bulls (6). The Spurs currently rank first among active franchises for the highest winning percentage in NBA history.

In their 45 NBA seasons since 1976–1977, the Spurs have won 22 division titles. They tied an NBA record by making the playoffs 21 consecutive years, from 1997-1998 to 2018–2019, and have missed the playoffs seven times since entering the NBA. They have missed the playoffs in three consecutive seasons. The Spurs also hold the record for most consecutive 50-win seasons at 18, spanning from 1999–2000 to 2016–2017.

The Frost Bank Center is a multi-purpose indoor arena on the east side of San Antonio, Texas. It seats 18,581 for basketball, 16,000 for ice hockey, and up to 19,000 for concerts or religious gatherings, and contains 2,018 club seats, 60 luxury suites and 32 bathrooms.

The arena was completed in 2002, as the SBC Center. While Bexar County owns the arena, SS&E is partnered with the county to manage the day-to-day operations of the Frost Bank Center.

The Frost Bank Center went under a renovation of more than $100 million, with improvements that include expanded entrances, renovated concourses, new concessions and bar areas, a larger Fan Shop and a new HD video scoreboard. Renovations were completed before the 2015–16 season.
