Thursday features the final slate of games in the NBA before the league starts its annual break that coincides with All-Star weekend, and for those who will not participate in the festivities in San Francisco, it will be an opportunity for them to rest and reset before the stretch run.
Although plenty of people still expect the Boston Celtics to repeat as world champions, there is lots of parity across the league right now, and besides the handful of teams that have a shot at winning it all, there are a few underrated teams that could make some noise in the playoffs.
Colin Cowherd said that one team — the San Antonio Spurs — belongs in that second group as a squad that can make a postseason run, per the Volume.
“Keep your eye on San Antonio,” Cowherd said.

San Antonio has a 21-year-old monster in Victor Wembanyama, who is already playing at a borderline superstar level in just his second season in the NBA.
Last week, they made the trade that will likely set them up for success as soon as next season and possibly even championship contention when they acquired star guard De’Aaron Fox, and he is forming a terrific duo along with Wembanyama.
While the Spurs have won just two of their first five games with Fox and are in 12th place in the Western Conference with a 23-29 record, they still have a real shot at reaching the play-in tournament.
They’re currently just three games behind the Golden State Warriors for the 10th spot in the West.
Should the Spurs reach the play-in tournament and/or the playoffs, no one will want to face them, as Cowherd said, since it would mean up to seven games of dealing with the 7-foot-3 Wembanyama and one of the deadliest crunch-time performers the NBA has in Fox.
