OKC Thunder: TI editor power ranking week 9: The shuffle is on
15. team. 29. . 15-15. Previous: 24th. San Antonio Spurs
2018-19 began with Dejounte Murray poised to step into the spotlight but before this season even began he tore his ACL. Coupled with a myriad of other untimely injuries the Spurs have floundered.
