""It's been an idea," Wembanyama said. "And now it's a project.""
""If this group of ultras reaches its full potential, I have no doubt that it's going to help us win games in the future for sure," Wembanyama said. "I mean, the 41 regular season games at home this season, that's 41 opportunities for them to push in the fourth quarter and give us that extra energy and that second wind that can give us the win.""
""nonstop chants, drums, flags, and passion.""
Victor Wembanyama proposed a supporters' section for the Spurs modeled after European soccer and basketball ultras. The group will perform nonstop chants, play drums, wave flags, and bring passionate support while maintaining respect. Tryouts for the section are scheduled for Sunday, and Wembanyama will attend. Members must commit to at least 75% of home games and participate in chants and rituals. The membership costs $999 and includes discounts and opportunities to meet surprise special guests. The group will choose its own name, and Wembanyama believes an energized supporters' section can help the team win games at home.
