Spurs to open season without Tobias Harris

San Antonio Spurs forward Tobias Harris will miss the team's season opener after suffering a left calf strain during the first week of training camp. Coach Mitch Johnson confirmed Harris needs more practice time to be ready for his debut, noting he has been ramping up and progressing well. The Spurs signed the 15-year veteran to a two-year, $31 million contract to bolster their front court.

Despite Harris' absence, the Spurs are in good health for the opener, with assistant coach Billy Donovan praising the team's health and the new lighting system at the Frost Bank Center.
