The San Antonio Spurs 1986–87 season was led by Alvin Robertson, whose scoring, playmaking, rebounding, and elite perimeter defense made him the team’s most complete contributor. Dave Greenwood anchored the frontcourt with strong rebounding and efficient interior scoring, while veteran Artis Gilmore added a dependable presence in the paint. San Antonio played at a relatively fast pace but struggled to convert its balanced production into consistent offensive and defensive success, resulting in a difficult season.
