Overview
- The Spurs covered airfare, hotel and game tickets for 50 Jackals members, according to pack leader Alex Peña in a KENS 5 report.
- Members were randomly selected and notified Sunday night after San Antonio advanced past the Thunder in the semifinal.
- Peña said only nine Jackals attended the semifinal and were scattered in the arena, predicting a far louder presence with 50 in Las Vegas.
- The Jackals were launched this season with Victor Wembanyama’s involvement after September tryouts, modeling European-style supporter sections with coordinated chants and drums.
- San Antonio faces the New York Knicks in the NBA Cup final in Las Vegas tonight at 7:30 p.m. ET on Amazon Prime.
