The team's H-E-B commercials are almost here!
Fans will find a lot to love about this year's TV spots, as the set of commercials includes Tony Parker's induction to the "Legends" and Bryn Forbes' addition to the star-studded lineup.
This year marks the 15th year that Spurs players have put their acting skills to the test. The collaboration began in 2004, when Tim Duncan made a solo appearance.
Two commercials are expected to air during Wednesday night's season opener: a "Cooking with the Spurs Podcast" and "Seafood Pirates," MySA.com reports. The former spot will star DeMar DeRozan, Rudy Gay, Patty Mills and the Coyote, who will be a "guest chef." In the latter, young Spur Bryn Forbes will make his commercial debut, joined by LaMarcus Aldridge, DeRozan, Gay and Mills. Forbes and Gay will even do their best pirate impressions.
"None of them are shy," H-E-B's vice president of marketing and advertising Cory Basso told MySA.com. "It's fun for them to be a part of the commercials because they get to share them with their fans."
Like in years past, Spurs fans have been able to enjoy behind-the-scenes look at the commercials thanks to social media teases from the official Spurs accounts and the stars themselves.
Following the two commercials' debut during the game, fans will be able to watch all six new commercials on H-E-B's website over the next few weeks.
