Nets Seek Turnaround Amidst Losing Streak Against Spurs Tonight

SAN ANTONIO, Texas — The Brooklyn Nets will look to end their four-game losing streak when they take on the San Antonio Spurs at Frost Bank Center on Tuesday, March 4, 2025, at 8:30 p.m. ET. After struggling throughout the season, the Nets aim for a pivotal win against the Spurs, who are also aiming to get back on track.

The Nets enter the matchup with a 21-39 record, while the Spurs are 25-34 overall. In their last matchup, San Antonio defeated Brooklyn 96-87 on December 27, 2024, in New York.

The betting line favors the Spurs by four points, with an over/under set at 227.5 points according to the latest odds. This matchup comes at a crucial time, following Brooklyn’s 115-94 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Saturday, which has compounded their recent struggles.

Cameron Thomas, the Nets’ leading scorer, is off the injury list and expected to return after missing nearly two months with a hamstring injury. Thomas averaged 24.3 points per game this season before his injury, and his presence could significantly aid Brooklyn’s offensive efforts.

“Having Cam back is huge for us, especially in this critical stage of the season,” said Nets coach Jacque Vaughn during a pre-game interview. “We need his scoring ability and playmaking to help our team get back on track.”

The Nets have remained competitive partly due to their defense, ranked 10th in the league, allowing 111.3 points per game. However, they are currently struggling offensively, sitting near the bottom in scoring at just 104.8 points per game.

On the other side, the Spurs are looking to bounce back after a rollercoaster performance. They suffered a close loss to the Denver Nuggets, losing 146-132, despite a late-game injury push. De'Aaron Fox, who is expected to lead the Spurs tonight, had a game-winning jumper against the Memphis Grizzlies previously, showcasing his clutch performance.

<p“Despite recent setbacks, we're focusing on what we can control and hoping to leverage our home advantage tonight,” said Fox. “Every game is crucial as we look to define our season.”

With both teams facing challenges, this matchup is particularly significant. Given their positions in the standings, each game plays a critical role in determining potential playoff spots.
