As the community gets ready to celebrate Pride Month, the Spurs sent a message to their fans on social media.
While companies, like NBA teams, have come under fire in recent years for monetizing social movements like Pride and Black Lives Matter, the Spurs have generally been on the forefront of such efforts.
Of course, Gregg Popovich has long supported such policies, and "The Spurs' Way" and their philanthropic efforts suggest that the Spurs as a whole support community initiatives like Pride.
In San Antonio, the Pride Parade is scheduled for June 28, hosted by Pride San Antonio and is dubbed the "largest LGBTQIA Night Parade" in the city.

The Spurs hosted Pride Month on March 2, joining 24 other teams that hosted a similar event during the season. The Spurs worked in partnership with Thrive Youth Center.
With San Antonio existing at the confluence of several cultures, it makes sense that the Spurs would be near the forefront of celebrating the diverse communities that make the city special.
