The San Antonio Spurs shared a heartfelt tribute to the lives lost in one of the deadliest floods in Central Texas. Before their game against the Miami Heat at the California Classic, the team held a moment of silence to remember the victims and their families.
The Disaster took 32 people’s lives, including 14 children in Kerr County. Sheriff Larry Leitha said the Guadalupe River rose more than 22 feet in just three hours on Friday. The flood hit Camp Mystic, where around 750 children attended summer camp. More than 27 people are still missing. The tragedy is named as a “mass casualty event”.
The team posted a tweet saying, “We’re heartbroken by the tragic flooding in the Hill Country. To every family grieving and every first responder helping others through the worst, please know the Spurs family is with you and holding you close in our thoughts.”

Crews are still searching for those missing victims. Over 850 people have been rescued, including 160 by helicopter. The Texas Hill Country is now on its way to overcoming the difficult loss and recovering fully to get back to normal life.

Chibuzo Agbo started his professional NBA career with the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday in the Summer League game. The former USC guard remained undrafted in the 2025 NBA draft last month, but after the final selection, he signed a contract with the Spurs.
The rookie guard posted five points on 2/6 shooting from the field and ¼ from three-point land in 14 minutes. Despite Agbo’s effort and relentless contribution, the Spurs fell short with 82-69.
The Spurs will return against the Golden State Warriors on Sunday, and Agbo is likely to contribute more and make another significant knock to win this time.
