The 2023–24 San Antonio Spurs season is the 57th season of the franchise, its 48th in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and its 51st in the San Antonio area. After finishing with the third-worst record in 2022–23, the Spurs won the 2023 NBA Draft Lottery,[1][2] selecting French center Victor Wembanyama as their third #1 pick in franchise history after previously selecting Tim Duncan in 1997 and David Robinson in 1987.

After starting the season 3–2, the Spurs went on to lose 18 games straight between November 5 and December 15, the longest losing streak in franchise history.
