San Antonio Spurs unveil new mural in Austin ahead of I-35 series

The mural is a tribute to Spurs fans in Austin.

SAN ANTONIO — The San Antonio Spurs unveiled a special Spurs x Austin-themed mural at Wanderlust Wine Co., created by local Austin artist Adrian Landon Brooks, to celebrate their upcoming Spurs Week and I-35 Series. 

The mural features the team's primary logo, boots, a cowboy hat, a hoop, and a basketball, all set to reflect the Spurs' rich basketball history.

The mural uses Earth tones, a departure from the team's primary black and white colors and retro Fiesta colors.

“Painting this massive Spurs mural, the energy and love from fans was electric,” said artist Adrian Landon Brooks in a release. “From photo ops to car-window cheers, it was an amazing experience. I’m honored to celebrate this powerful team and its family. Go Spurs!”

The outdoor mural is a tribute to Spurs fans in Austin and was recently completed at Wanderlust Wine Co.’s downtown location. 

According to the team, the mural will remain up through the remainder of the Spurs 2023-24 season. Fans are encouraged to take a photo and tag @Spurs and @Austin_Spurs using #SpursGetMoody for a chance to be featured on the team’s social channels. During Spurs Week, the Spurs will host a pop-up at the mural on Wednesday, March 13, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., where fans can stop by for free to enjoy a DJ, prizes, and photo opportunities.

“As we approach our second annual I-35 Series, this mural memorializes a special moment in time for our organization. Last year we celebrated 50 years of Spurs basketball and as we look to the next 50 years, it is moments like this that we will remember, which is why we are so excited to continue to make history alongside our Austin fans,” said Brandon James, Senior Vice President of Strategic Growth & Deputy General Counsel at Spurs Sports & Entertainment in a release. “Collaborating with local artists and businesses allows us to bring our love for Austin fans to life in the biggest, boldest ways possible as Austin continues to embrace the Spurs as their hometown team.”
