The Miracle Man:
Sean Elliott
#32 was the third pick in the 1989 draft and was a two-time All Star. However, his story is something movies are made of. From the greatest clutch shot in team history to his courageous retrun from a kidney transplant, Sean Elliott truly was a Miracle Man.

From Day One the San Antonio community has rallied together to bring and keep the Spurs in the Alamo City. An ownership change and the campaign to build a new arena provided a dramatic backdrop for what would become the Spurs new home in 2002.

Manu
The globalization of the NBA was well underway in the 1990's with several foreign players making a significant impact around the league. The Spurs might not have fullyknown it at the time, but they took the international game to another level when they drafted Manu Ginobili in the second round in 1999. Sometimes manic, always calculating, Ginobili brought a unique and entertaining brand of basketball to San Antonio and, in the meantime, became an all-time legend in the game.
