Spurs haven't threatened to leave San Antonio amid City Hall drama about new arena, councilman says
Despite fears Spurs fans have expressed online, the team's ownership hasn't made any threats to relocate, even as the mayor and members of City Council tussle over whether to pause negotiations for a new NBA arena, District 10 Councilman Marc Whyte said. "In terms of the Spurs, they haven't made any of those threats or anything," Whyte said during an appearance on San Antonio Sports Star's The Blitz with Jason & Joe radio show. Whyte gave the interview as Mayor Gina Ortiz Jones undertakes a media blitz to build public support for a "strategic pause" in the city's negotiations with Spurs Sports & Entertainment (SS&E) and for an independent economic impact analysis on Project Marvel, the massive sports-and-entertainment complex of which the team's proposed arena would be part.
