Wembanyama, Spurs Surprise Ingram Students With High School Visit

The visit signaled ongoing support for Hill Country recovery after July 4 flooding that killed at least 135 people.

Overview

  • On Sept. 10, nearly the full Spurs roster visited Tom Moore High School in Ingram for an hourlong surprise event attended by about 1,000 students.
  • Victor Wembanyama drew sustained cheers, threw down multiple dunks including a between-the-legs windmill, and posed for selfies with students.
  • Players stayed to sign autographs, give hugs, and engage closely with students and staff, providing a visible morale boost for the community.
  • The organization previously coordinated roughly $2 million in relief with the NBA and other Texas teams and sent top leadership to survey damage in early August after first reaching out on July 5.
  • Team officials said support will continue, with details in progress for a late-September festival expected to involve other Texas professional clubs.
