Allowing 132.0 points in your first tune-up is an easy way to make October feel long, and the 0-1 Hawks land at Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, TX at 8:00 PM EDT carrying some serious perimeter issues. San Antonio opens its preseason slate at 0-0 on its home floor, presenting a fresh canvas while Atlanta tries to fix a defensive shell that offered zero resistance out of the gate. If you are yielding that kind of scoring volume in exhibition play, the scheme is already leaking oil.
Atlanta’s rotational headroom takes another hit with guards Aaron Wiggins (laceration) and Luguentz Dort (bruise) both tagged as game-time decisions, putting even more scoring pressure on whoever is left standing. The Spurs enter with a clean statistical board—0.0 points allowed—and a minor frontcourt tweak of their own as forward Jayden Quaintance stays sidelined following surgery.
