Spurs dress crowd in brightly colored Fiesta-themed playoff shirts
San Antonio kicked off its first postseason series in 6 seasons with a visual feast against the Trail Blazers.
The San Antonio Spurs returned to the playoffs with a splash Sunday night, debuting a colorful, well-coordinated set of playoff shirts for their first-round series against the Portland Trail Blazers. Rather than opt for one shirt for the whole arena, the Spurs decided to get creative, painting the crowd in brightly colored shirts in alternating sections. The teal-, pink- and orange-colored shirts are an homage to Fiesta San Antonio, an annual festival that takes place in April.
Sunday’s crowd coordinated with the colors on the Spurs’ uniforms, which are part of the City Edition jerseys unveiled by the team in November. The court’s design matches the colors as well, with the paint decked in teal and a colorful stripe of all three colors across the center-court logo. Playoffs Ready.

Pregame, the Spurs singled out fans on the Jumbotron, asking them to put on their shirts, and they thanked the crowd for participating. Even Spurs legends David Robinson and Tim Duncan bought in, wearing their orange shirts courtside. David Robinson and Tim Duncan in the building for Game 1 in San Antonio!
