The San Antonio Spurs are the NBA’s cleanest team, with minimal fines and suspensions.<\/p>\n
SAN ANTONIO \u2014 When it comes to playing it clean on the court, the San Antonio Spurs<\/a> are the best in the NBA.<\/p>\n A recent list from RotoWire ranked the dirtiest teams in the NBA from 2015-25. It was measured by team fines and suspensions given by the league. Additionally, it utilized Spotrac’s “NBA Fines & Suspensions” database, which compiles fines, fine totals, suspensions, and games lost.<\/p>\n And the Silver and Black ranked No. 30, making them the least-dirtiest team.<\/p>\n Over the time span, the Spurs have racked up 155 fines, totaling $449,000, and two player suspensions, resulting in six total games being suspended.<\/p>\n Clearly, this is a reflection on former head coach Gregg Popovich and his conviction that players should approach wins and losses with grace. Not to mention strong on-court leadership from David Robinson, Manu Ginobili, Tim Duncan (who once pulled Tony Parker by the jersey away from arguing with a ref and flirting with getting tossed), and Avery Johnson.<\/p>\n RELATED: Spurs 1999 championship team, original Spurs Coyote set to be inducted into the SA Sports Hall Of Fame<\/a><\/p>\n AUSTIN SPURS COMPLETE TRADE WITH THE BLUE<\/p>\n Austin Spurs completed a trade with the Oklahoma City Blue, receiving the returning player rights of Adam Flagler in exchange for the rights of Malachi Flynn, the No. 13 pick in the 2025 G League Draft, and a second-round pick in the 2026 G League Draft.<\/p>\n
